Crane NXT's 15-minute chart has recently exhibited two bearish indicators: a MACD Death Cross and a KDJ Death Cross, both of which occurred on August 20, 2023 at 10:00. This suggests that the stock price has the potential to continue its downward trend, as momentum is shifting towards the downside and may lead to further decreases in the stock price.

Crane NXT (CXT), a maker of engineered industrial products, has recently experienced two bearish indicators on its 15-minute chart, signaling a potential downward trend in its stock price. On August 20, 2023 at 10:00, the chart triggered a MACD Death Cross and a KDJ Death Cross, both of which are technical indicators that suggest a shift in momentum towards the downside [1].

The MACD Death Cross, which occurs when the MACD line crosses below the signal line, indicates a change in the direction of the stock price from bullish to bearish. Similarly, the KDJ Death Cross, which occurs when the KDJ line crosses below the signal line, suggests a significant decrease in market momentum. These indicators collectively imply that the stock price may continue to decline [2].

Additionally, the Bollinger Bands Narrowing and the Bearish Marubozu observed on August 20, 2023, further support the bearish trend. Bollinger Bands Narrowing indicates a decrease in stock price volatility, while a Bearish Marubozu suggests a strong sell-off with no wicks, confirming the downtrend [3].

Despite these negative technical signals, CXT has shown improvement in its Relative Strength Rating. On Wednesday, the rating improved from 67 to 73, indicating relatively strong performance over the past 52 weeks compared to the broader market [4]. However, the recent technical indicators suggest a potential shift in momentum.

Investors should closely monitor CXT's performance and consider the implications of these technical indicators on their investment decisions. The "death cross" signals indicate a potential downside momentum, which could lead to further decreases in the stock price.

Wall Street expects a year-over-year decline in earnings for CXT when it reports results for the quarter ended June 2025. The consensus estimate for earnings per share is $0.92, representing a year-over-year change of -13.2%. Revenues are expected to be $376.41 million, up 1.6% from the year-ago quarter [5].
