Comment

The stock is underperforming the market when compared to the S&P 500 over the last 50 trading days. While the technical condition of MDT is deteriorating there remain positive factors which include the MACD-LT, an intermediate-term trend indicator, which is bullish at this time. If the stock closes below $98.78 a change in trend will be confirmed.Upside momentum, as measured by the 14-day RSI, is negative. Over the last 50 trading sessions, there has been more volume on down days than on up days, indicating that MDT is under distribution, which is a bearish condition. The stock is currently above a falling 50-day moving average. A move below this average would be confirmation that the trend is changing. MDT could find secondary support at its rising 200-day moving average.
