AI Summary

Stalk
Sell NowHigh

NEON remains in a Stage 4 decline with persistent lower highs and lower lows under declining EMAs. The active Lower Highs & Lower Lows pattern signals supply dominance, and price trades below the 9, 20, 50, and 200 EMAs with rallies into near-term EMAs consistently rejected. Despite extreme oversold conditions, there are no signs of a repair or stabilization phase. Execution should focus on selling into relief rallies into the declining 9 and 20 EMAs. The primary risk is a sustained reclaim and acceptance above these EMAs, which would invalidate the bearish bias.

Bear points

  • our sales revenues were more or less on par with those of 2021. I must say that it's not bad, but we are not satisfied and we're working hard to improve that and grow the business.
  • That is a decrease of 3% compared to 2021, largely due to component shortages within the automotive and printer industries, affecting our license revenues.
  • we had a net loss of 4.9 million compared to 6.5 million in 2021, which indicates ongoing financial challenges despite reduced operating expenses.
