Revenue and subscriber growth outpace estimates amid relentless sell-off

SoFi reported second-quarter adjusted earnings of $0.12 per share on revenue of $1.2 billion, both exceeding Wall Street estimates. The company added 1.1 million members in the latest quarter, along with 2.2 million new product additions and surpassed 200,000 paying SoFi Plus subscribers. A partnership was entered with Payward, parent of Kraken, integrating SoFi's banking and stablecoin offerings with Kraken’s platform, and new brand sponsorships were also announced, including a deal with Notre Dame. These developments were accompanied by continued revenue growth, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes consistent selling pressure as SoFi trades below all key moving averages. He highlights that strong quarterly earnings and a new Kraken partnership failed to improve sentiment. The technical backdrop remains bearish, with weak momentum on most indicators despite the MACD buy signal. Kharitonov warns that price action near session lows and divergence in signals point to ongoing risk. "A decisive break below $16.78 could trigger further losses, and current upside attempts lack conviction in this environment."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees SoFi’s strong member and product growth as evidence of robust fundamentals. He views the Kraken partnership and new sponsorships as setting the stage for further expansion. Karapetjanc believes the company’s earnings beat and subscriber milestones reflect a resilient business model. "With growth drivers in place and ongoing revenue momentum, I see the bullish structure intact and expect further upside once market sentiment recovers."

Sholanke Dele, market strategist, highlights that SoFi’s price is weighed down despite solid news flow. He is cautious about the lack of trend strength as key oscillators point near-oversold conditions. Dele warns that macro headwinds continue to undermine confidence in growth stocks like SoFi. "Until broad selling abates and technical support proves durable, I remain skeptical of any near-term recovery here."

Mixed momentum signals emerge as technical barriers confine downside

SoFi is trading below its 20-day ($18.23), 50-day ($17.88), and 200-day ($19.93) moving averages, indicating seller pressure across short-, medium-, and long-term trends. The nearest support is the near-term floor at $16.78, while resistance sits just above at the near-term ceiling of $17.62, with the 50-day moving average confirming a bearish long-term alignment. Momentum readings are mixed: MACD gives a strong buy signal, but the Average Directional Index (ADX) is neutral, pointing to a lack of clear trend strength. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 49.64 and Stochastic RSI at 43.15 both forecast selling, just above oversold territory, while the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) is neutral. Bull/Bear Power (BBP) at 0.2 suggests buyers hold slight dominance intraday. The price is down $0.57 or 3.16% today following a downside gap of about 0.56%, trading near its session low. Intraday volatility stands at 1.70% and the tone reflects ongoing pressure after the open. These signals diverge, with MACD implying a potential reversal yet most oscillators and price action still indicating downside momentum.

Earlier, analysts noted that persistent technical weakness and downside risk were dominating SoFi’s trading outlook despite positive business developments. The current setup reinforces this cautious stance, with price action still under pressure and traders advised to closely monitor the $16.78 support for signs of further downside or stabilization.
