Bottom line

USFD Technical Analysis Summary

USFD (US Foods Holding Corp.) is in a strong technical uptrend on both timeframes. On the daily chart, price at 100.49 sits above SMA20 (98.91), SMA50 (94.68), and SMA200 (86.60), with RSI14 at 56.48 and MACD momentum still consolidating after a recent pullback (MACD line 1.16 below signal 1.28, histogram -0.12). The stock recovered from the pullback near the 20-day low (93.14) and is again approaching the 52-week high at 105.17. The weekly chart confirms the constructive picture: price at 100.59 is above SMA20 (91.95), SMA50 (85.02), and SMA200 (60.21), with RSI at 60.96 and a positive MACD histogram of +0.76. The 252-week return of about +177.6% reflects a sustained long-term uptrend. Key resistance is at 103.81 (20-day high) and 105.17 (52-week high). Key support rests at 98.91 (SMA20), 94.68 (SMA50), and 93.14 (20-day low). A daily close above 103.81 with volume would open the path toward new highs; a break below SMA50 would point to a deeper pullback toward the 60-day low at 79.52.

Daily (August 5, 2026)

Trend
Bullish structure. Price at 100.49 is above SMA20 (98.91, +1.60%), SMA50 (94.68, +6.13%), and SMA200 (86.60, +16.03%). The daily USFD trend analysis shows price trading above a fully stacked set of rising moving averages, with SMA200 sloping upward, which keeps the near-term trend constructive after a pullback from the early-August highs.
Momentum
Mildly bullish. RSI14 at 56.48 is above the 50 midline, indicating positive short-term momentum without overbought conditions. MACD line at 1.16 is just below the signal line at 1.28, and the histogram at -0.12 is slightly negative, showing momentum consolidating after the recent rebound rather than confirming a new breakout.
Volatility
Moderate. ATR14 at 2.71 (2.70% of price) suggests an average daily move of roughly 2.7%. Bollinger Bands (94.38 to 103.44) show price near the upper half of the band, consistent with the recovery from the pullback. Band width is moderate, indicating normal volatility conditions.
Volume
Above average. Latest volume of 3,059,500 is 1.28x the 20-period average (2,384,080), indicating elevated participation on the recent up bars as the stock approaches resistance.

Assessment

The daily chart is constructive. USFD sits above all three key moving averages, RSI is above 50, and the stock has recovered toward the 103.81 area after holding the 93.14 low. The slight negative MACD histogram means momentum has not yet fully turned, so the immediate focus is a daily close above 103.81, which would open the path toward the 52-week high at 105.17. Support rests at SMA20 (98.91), SMA50 (94.68), and the 20-day low (93.14).

Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)

Trend
Bullish. Price at 100.59 is above SMA20 (91.95, +9.39%), SMA50 (85.02, +18.31%), and well above SMA200 (60.21, +67.05%). The weekly structure reflects a sustained long-term uptrend, with price trading in the upper part of its range near the 52-week high.
Momentum
Bullish. RSI14 at 60.96 is above the 50 midline, showing solid upward momentum without overbought conditions. MACD line at 3.91 is above the signal line at 3.15, and the histogram at +0.76 is positive, confirming the uptrend at the weekly level.
Volatility
Moderate. ATR14 at 5.64 (5.61% of price) reflects the normal weekly ranges of a mid-cap stock in an uptrend. Bollinger Bands (78.83 to 105.07) show price near the upper band, consistent with the strong trend.
Volume
Near average. Weekly volume of 10,964,600 is 0.87x the 20-week average (12,533,395), indicating normal participation without an unusual surge during the recent advance.

Assessment

The weekly chart is firmly bullish. Price is above all three key SMAs with SMA200 sloping upward, RSI is at 61, and the MACD histogram is positive. The 252-week return of about +177.6% reflects the long-term uptrend. A weekly close above the 105.17 high would confirm trend extension; a pullback would find support at SMA20 (91.95) and SMA50 (85.02).
