The read, from its own figures
What its numbers say
- GIS closes below its 50-day average ($35.29), and the 50-day sits below the 200-day ($37.45): on both averages the chart reads as a downtrend.
- At $34.56, GIS is 30.3% below its 1-year high of $49.59, set on February 12, 2026, and 10.9% above its 1-year low of $31.18 (October 1, 2026).
- Over the past month GIS rose 8.0%, from $32.01 to $34.56.
- GIS's 30-day volatility, 39.0% a year, works out to a typical daily move of about 2.5%.
- Yahoo Finance puts its beta at -0.01: over five years of monthly returns, GIS moved about -0.01% for each 1% move of the S&P 500.
- The last session traded 0.5x GIS's average daily volume of the 30 sessions before it.
What would change the read
- A close above the 50-day average, $35.29 (+2.1%), would turn the read to a rebound; an uptrend also needs the 50-day to climb 6.1% to cross the 200-day at $37.45.
- A close above $49.59 (+43.5%) would be a new 1-year high; below $31.18 (−9.8%), a new 1-year low.
How it is computed
- Prices are Yahoo Finance's daily candles for GIS, the same ones the chart below draws; the P/E, forward P/E and beta are Yahoo Finance quote fields.
- The averages are simple means of the last 50 and 200 closes; the 1-year high and low are the highest high and lowest low of the last 252 sessions; the 30-day volatility is the standard deviation of the past month's daily returns, annualized with the square root of 252.
- Peers are the other companies Yahoo Finance files under packaged foods among the assets we track, not a full industry screen; the median counts those with a positive P/E.
