Highlights

SoFi reported two consecutive years of profitability, signaling improved financial stability amid recent business expansion.
Vanguard Group increased its stake in SoFi by 6.8% in Q3, now holding over 107 million shares.
SOFI trades at $19.15, well below key moving averages with bearish momentum signals and a likely short-term trading range of $18.33–$18.36.

Profitability gains offset by higher credit risk and increased Vanguard stake

SoFi recently reported two consecutive years of profitability, demonstrating improved financial stability. The company also announced a rise in credit risk associated with expansion in its home equity loan portfolio and subordinate liens. Additionally, Vanguard Group increased its stake in SoFi by 6.8% during the third quarter, now holding over 107 million shares.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that SoFi's ongoing price weakness is confirmed by its clear breach below all major moving averages. He observes that downside risks persist, given the lack of immediate technical support and the sell alignment of momentum indicators. Kharitonov highlights the recent credit risk disclosures tied to SoFi's expanding loan book as additional negative sentiment drivers. Despite some institutional accumulation, he remains cautious, citing persistent bearish momentum and oversold readings that have yet to catalyze a reversal. "With the price drifting lower and technical signals unconvincing, I do not anticipate a sustainable recovery in the immediate term," he states.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, points to SoFi’s two years of profitability and increased institutional investment as strong indications of underlying business resilience. He sees recent stakeholder confidence, including Vanguard’s commitment, as a foundation for longer-term growth potential. While acknowledging interim volatility, Karapetjanc believes the expanding home equity segment and solid financials are key forward-looking drivers. "Despite short-term pressure, I see further growth expected in the medium term as the company’s bullish structure remains fundamentally intact," he remarks.

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, observes that current sentiment is dominated by sellers, pushing SOFI below key supports and keeping near-term momentum negative. He notes tight trading ranges and oversold signals hint at possible short-term bounce setups for nimble traders. Turakhiya stresses that any intraday rebounds should be closely monitored, as confirmation from oscillators remains lacking. "I see opportunity only for tactical trades with strict stops — a sustainable reversal will need more clear evidence," he says.

Persistent selling pressure as key indicators confirm oversold condition

The current price of SOFI at $19.15 is well below the MA-20 ($22.33), MA-50 ($25.09), and MA-200 ($23.20), signaling strong downward pressure across short-, medium-, and long-term trends. The nearest dynamic resistance is Kijun at $23.19, while there are no nearby support levels from the Ichimoku indicator in play at this level. Momentum indicators point to a clear bearish tone, with MACD and ADX on the daily chart both aligning to a sell signal, confirming persistent downward momentum. RSI at 29.85, CCI at –85.14, and oversold readings from BBP emphasize sellers’ dominance and potential oversold conditions, though Stoch RSI is neutral and does not confirm. The Awesome Oscillator also supports the prevailing negative trend. Today’s price action shows a decline of $0.40 or 2.05%, opening lower with a minor gap and currently trading closer to the bottom of today’s range ($19.09 to $19.48). Volatility is low, with the intraday tone reflecting steady pressure from sellers after the open. While most momentum and oscillator signals agree, minor divergence comes from some neutral readings, but overall intraday performance confirms the bearish momentum.

Last time, analysts noted that SoFi Technologies, Inc. continues to trade below its key moving averages, with persistent bearish momentum confirmed by MACD, ADX, and a low RSI near oversold territory. Despite recent earnings outperformance and some intraday buying interest, the stock remains under pressure with resistance overhead and little support evident above current levels.
