Friday, 30 January 2026: Death Cross Formation and Mixed Momentum
Despite the week’s strong gains, DCM Shriram Ltd. closed lower on Friday at Rs.1,178.60, down Rs.10.70 or 0.90%. The Sensex also declined by 0.22% to 36,185.03. The day’s trading was marked by the formation of a Death Cross, a significant technical event where the 50-day moving average crossed below the 200-day moving average, signalling potential bearish momentum ahead. This development raised caution among investors, despite some daily moving averages turning mildly bullish.
Technical indicators presented a mixed picture: while the weekly MACD remained bearish, the monthly MACD turned bullish, suggesting longer-term strength. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) hovered in neutral territory, and Bollinger Bands showed mild bearishness weekly but mild bullishness monthly. On-balance volume trends were mildly bearish weekly, indicating cautious investor participation. Overall, the technical momentum shifted from sideways to mildly bullish on daily charts but retained caution on weekly and monthly timeframes.

Conclusion: Navigating Mixed Momentum Amid Technical Shifts
DCM Shriram Ltd.’s performance this week was characterised by strong gains and a notable outperformance of the Sensex, driven by midweek rallies and positive daily momentum. However, the emergence of the Death Cross and mixed technical indicators introduce a note of caution. While longer-term monthly indicators remain supportive, the bearish weekly signals and volume trends suggest investors should monitor developments closely.
The stock’s Mojo Score of 68.0, corresponding to a 'Hold' rating, reflects this balanced outlook. Investors with a longer horizon may find value in the stock’s historical resilience and recent recovery, but those focused on short-term trends should remain vigilant for confirmation of trend direction. Overall, DCM Shriram Ltd. is in a transitional phase, with technical signals urging prudence alongside cautious optimism.
