To predict the stock price of Bio-Techne (TECH) for the next trading week, we analyze both fundamental and technical factors.
New Product Launch: Bio-Techne expanded its RNAscope probes portfolio, enhancing its position in spatial biology research. This could drive revenue growth and improve investor sentiment.
Citi's Price Target Adjustment: Citi lowered TECH's price target to $70 from $80, citing light investor appetite in the life science tools sector.
Federal Judge's Ruling: A preliminary injunction blocking NIH funding cuts is a positive catalyst for TECH, as it prevents potential funding reductions.
Considering the positive product launch and blocked NIH cuts, TECH may see upward movement. However, Citi's lowered target and mixed technicals suggest caution. The stock is expected to trade around $67.50 next week.
Buy TECH stock, targeting $67.50, as positive catalysts may outweigh technical challenges.
The price of TECH is predicted to go up 8.47%, based on the high correlation periods with IRWD. The similarity of these two price pattern on the periods is 98.56%.
