Invesco (IVZ) shares plunged 4.48% today, marking the fourth consecutive day of decline, with a total drop of 22.63% over the past four days. The stock price hit its lowest level since October 2020, experiencing an intraday decline of 6.61%.

Analysts have recently adjusted their ratings and target prices for Invesco. Bank of America lowered its target price from $19.00 to $18.00 while maintaining a "neutral" rating. Such adjustments can significantly impact investor sentiment and stock performance, contributing to the recent downward trend.

Technical analysis also plays a crucial role in the current market sentiment. The Barchart Technical Opinion rated Invesco's stock as an 88% Sell with a strong short-term outlook, indicating that the market is highly oversold. This technical assessment suggests that selling pressures are likely to persist in the near term, further influencing the stock's performance.

Additionally, Invesco is currently trading ex-dividend, which can cause short-term volatility as investors adjust their positions to capture the dividend payout. This dividend-related activity adds another layer of complexity to the stock's recent price movements, contributing to the overall market dynamics.
