Interpublic Group of Companies (IPG) has recently seen its stock price trigger two significant technical indicators, the MACD Death Cross and KDJ Death Cross, on September 17, 2025, at 13:00. These indicators suggest a potential downward trend in the stock price, as momentum has shifted towards the downside IPG, Big Oil, the climate blindspot and the cost of credibility[1].

IPG's recent business challenges, including repeated rounds of layoffs and the potential merger with Omnicom, have been attributed to various factors. Notably, the company's reversal on its climate policy, which initially pledged not to run campaigns for fossil fuel companies seeking to extend fossil fuel production, has drawn scrutiny. This reversal, which occurred in response to escalating climate emergencies and employee movements, has been seen as a strategic misstep IPG, Big Oil, the climate blindspot and the cost of credibility[1].

The decision to take on campaigns for Saudi Aramco, intended to boost the oil company's "license to operate as part of the future energy landscape," may have contributed to IPG's business challenges.

In conclusion, IPG's recent stock price indicators suggest a potential downward trend. The company's climate policy reversal and reliance on vulnerable industries highlight the need for a more strategic approach to climate change. Any assessment of future strategy for the marketing industry in 2025 needs to consider climate change as a crucial factor affecting key sectors and brands.
