What’s next for Adobe Inc. (ADBE) stock?
It's worth noting that Friday's candle closed above its midpoint, which could be interpreted as a sign that demand forces were present, viewing the price drop as an opportunity to take long positions. Any panic, if there was any, didn’t significantly extend the downward momentum.
Therefore, while the disappointing forecast may continue to weigh on ADBE's stock price, bulls might show renewed activity – potentially around the psychological $500 mark or the lower boundary of the channel.
According to TipRanks, the average price target for ADBE stock is $620 over the next 12 months, indicating a potential upside of 15% from current levels.
