United Bankshares warned that scammers may pretend to be from government agencies, using threats to pressure individuals into immediate payment.
The company stated that government agencies will not demand payment over the phone. It advised people to pause and verify if pressured to act quickly.
UBSI is currently trading at $40.36, sitting just above the MA-20 ($40.17) but well below the MA-50 ($41.93) and above the MA-200 ($38.44). This setup points to neutral-to-bearish short-term momentum, medium-term pressure from sellers, and longer-term technical support. The Ichimoku Kijun stands at $41.47, which is immediate resistance. Near-term support is clustered around MA-20 ($40.17) and MA-100 ($40.05), with key support at MA-200 ($38.44). Near-term resistance sits at the Kijun ($41.47) with key resistance at MA-50 ($41.93).
Momentum on D1 is weak, with the MACD signaling a strong sell and ADX at 18.56 confirming a lack of clear trend. RSI is at 45.94 with a sell outlook, while Stoch RSI and CCI indicate overbought readings, highlighting mixed oscillator signals and potential exhaustion for buyers. The BBP is at 0.62 and flagged as overbought, suggesting buyers have recently dominated but may be losing steam. In today's session, UBSI has declined 1.75%, reflecting notable intraday weakness. Over the past week, the stock is trading at $40.36, up from $39.56 a week ago, marking a 2.02% gain. Price action is in the lower part of the weekly range, and weekly volatility stands at 3.55%. The week shows a pullback from recent highs after recovery early in the week.
Looking ahead, the expected price range for the coming week is $39.00 to $41.00, in line with recent volatility and well within the bands set by the 52-week low ($30.51) and high ($45.93). Short-term probabilities are nearly balanced but lean bearish: with one of four weekly signals (RSI-W1) positive, the probability of a price increase is very low (less than 20%), making further declines more likely. The baseline scenario is for UBSI to consolidate between $39.00 and $41.00. If the price breaks above $41.50, a move toward $42.50 is possible, while a drop below $40.00 could open the way for a decline toward the $38.50–$39.00 support zone.
