Stock price trends estimated using linear regression.

Key facts

  • The primary trend is decreasing.
  • The decline rate of the primary trend is 51.67% per annum.
  • MCHP price at the close of April 29, 2025 was $45.92 and was inside the primary price channel.
  • The secondary trend is decreasing.
  • The decline rate of the secondary trend is 95.79% per annum.
  • MCHP price at the close of April 29, 2025 was higher than the top border of the secondary price channel by $5.14 (12.60%). This indicates a possible reversal in the secondary trend direction.

Linear Regression Model

Model equation:
Yi = α + β × Xi + εi

Top border of price channel:
Exp(Yi) = Exp(a + b × Xi + 2 × s)

Bottom border of price channel:
Exp(Yi) = Exp(a + b × Xi – 2 × s)

where:

i - observation number
Yi - natural logarithm of MCHP price
Xi - time index, 1 day interval
σ - standard deviation of εi
a - estimator of α
b - estimator of β
s - estimator of σ
Exp() - calculates the exponent of e


Primary Trend

Start date: May 6, 2024
End date: April 2, 2025

a = 7.5096

b = -0.0020

s = 0.0571

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0020) – 1
= -51.67%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0571) – 1
= 25.66%

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,010)
= Exp(a + b × X1,010 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,467 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.5096 + -0.0020 × 1,467 + 2 × 0.0571)
= Exp(4.7015)
= $110.11

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,010)
= Exp(a + b × X1,010 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,467 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.5096 + -0.0020 × 1,467 – 2 × 0.0571)
= Exp(4.4730)
= $87.62

April 2, 2025 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,237)
= Exp(a + b × X1,237 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,798 + 2 × s)
= Exp(7.5096 + -0.0020 × 1,798 + 2 × 0.0571)
= Exp(4.0421)
= $56.95

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,237)
= Exp(a + b × X1,237 – 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,798 – 2 × s)
= Exp(7.5096 + -0.0020 × 1,798 – 2 × 0.0571)
= Exp(3.8137)
= $45.32

Secondary Trend

Start date: February 18, 2025
End date: April 22, 2025

a = 19.4089

b = -0.0087

s = 0.0712

Annual growth rate:

Exp(365 × b) – 1
= Exp(365 × -0.0087) – 1
= -95.79%

Price channel spread:

Exp(4 × s) – 1
= Exp(4 × 0.0712) – 1
= 32.96%

February 18, 2025 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,206)
= Exp(a + b × X1,206 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,755 + 2 × s)
= Exp(19.4089 + -0.0087 × 1,755 + 2 × 0.0712)
= Exp(4.3159)
= $74.88

Bottom border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,206)
= Exp(a + b × X1,206 – 2 × s)

April 22, 2025 calculations

Top border of price channel:

Exp(Y1,250)
= Exp(a + b × X1,250 + 2 × s)
= Exp(a + b × 1,818 + 2 × s)
= Exp(19.4089 + -0.0087 × 1,818 + 2 × 0.0712)
= Exp(3.7690)
= $43.34

Bottom border of price channel:
