Bottom line

KR Technical Analysis Summary

KR is in a bearish trend on both daily and weekly timeframes. Price at 59.31 trades below the SMA50 (62.69) and SMA200 (65.28) on the daily chart, and below SMA20 (66.31) and SMA50 (65.77) on the weekly chart. The daily RSI at 46.78 and weekly RSI at 43.06 are both below the 50 neutral level, indicating bearish momentum. The daily MACD histogram has turned positive (0.53), suggesting the potential for short-term momentum improvement, but the weekly MACD histogram remains negative (-1.05). Key resistance is at the SMA50 (62.69) and the 20-day high (64.98). The 52-week low at 54.15 serves as the primary support level. The stock must reclaim the SMA50 to signal a potential trend reversal; a break below 54.15 would confirm further downside.

Daily (July 13, 2026)

Trend
Bearish. Price at 59.31 trades above SMA20 (58.99) but below SMA50 (62.69) and SMA200 (65.28). The SMA20 is below SMA50, which is below SMA200, forming a bearish alignment. The SMA200 is trending downward, confirming the long-term downtrend.
Momentum
Bearish. RSI14 at 46.78 is below the 50 neutral level, reflecting bearish momentum. MACD at -1.02 remains below the signal line at -1.55, but the histogram has turned positive at 0.53, hinting at a potential momentum shift. This divergence warrants monitoring for confirmation.
Volatility
Moderate. ATR14 at 1.79 (3.02% of price) indicates average daily movement of about 3.0%. Bollinger Bands (53.52 to 64.47) are moderately wide with price near the middle band, reflecting the current indecision.
Volume
Below average. Latest volume of 8,591,300 is 86.7% of the 20-period average (9,915,215), indicating slightly reduced participation.

Assessment

The daily chart shows a stock in a clear downtrend with price below the key moving averages. The bearish alignment of SMAs (20 below 50 below 200) confirms the bearish structure. However, the positive MACD histogram and price recovering above SMA20 are early signs that could precede a short-term bounce. The stock needs to reclaim SMA50 at 62.69 to shift the short-term outlook. Near-term support is at the 52-week low of 54.15.

Weekly (July 6, 2026 week)

Trend
Bearish. Price at 60.54 trades below SMA20 (66.31) and SMA50 (65.77), though above SMA200 (54.35). The SMA20 has crossed below SMA50, a bearish signal. The SMA200 is sloping upward, indicating the long-term trend remains positive despite recent weakness.
Momentum
Bearish. RSI14 at 43.06 is below the 50 neutral level. MACD at -1.99 is below signal at -0.94 with a negative histogram of -1.05, confirming bearish momentum on the weekly timeframe.
Volatility
Elevated. ATR14 at 4.29 (7.08% of price) reflects wider weekly ranges, consistent with a stock experiencing a downtrend with above-average selling pressure.
Volume
Above average. Weekly volume of 49,867,800 is 147.4% of the 20-week average (33,824,955), indicating elevated participation during the decline, a bearish signal.

Assessment

The weekly chart confirms the bearish picture seen on daily. Price is below both the SMA20 and SMA50, with bearish SMA alignment forming. The RSI at 43.06 is firmly in bearish territory. The negative MACD histogram and above-average selling volume suggest the downtrend has momentum. The 52-week low at 54.15 is the key downside level to watch. A sustained move above SMA50 (65.77) would be needed to suggest a trend reversal.
