Stock Market Week 49/25: RENIXX Little Changed - Plug Power and Bloom Energy Lead - Solaredge, Sunrun and Canadian Solar with Double-Digit Losses
Münster (Germany) - After a strong rebound in the previous week, RENIXX World moved sideways without clear direction in the last trading week. At the close of trading, RENIXX stood slightly above the previous week’s closing price. The best-performing stocks of the week were the fuel cell and hydrogen companies Plug Power and Bloom Energy.
Technical Outlook: RENIXX Targets the 1,200-Point Mark
From the end of 2023 to January 2025, RENIXX moved in a sideways range between 1,000 and 1,200 points. The subsequent drop to 748 points marked a significant intermediate low and continues to represent the key support zone in the longer-term chart.
With rising volatility, the index recently climbed to just under 1,300 points, reaching the upper boundary of the former trading range. Profit-taking then pushed the index sharply lower again, at times close to the 1,000-point mark. After a counter-move last week, the market is now dominated by a neutral sideways trend, confirming the expected short-term scenario. Only a breakout above 1,200 points or a renewed drop below 1,000 points would redefine the overall technical outlook. Year-to-date 2025, RENIXX now stands at +18.4 percent after Friday’s close (previous week: +18.1%).
