Range-bound outlook with volatility driving directional risks
Over the next 2–3 trading days, RKT is expected to consolidate within a range of GBX4,987 to GBX5,198.

A sustained break above resistance could fuel further upside, whereas a drop through immediate support may trigger renewed selling.
Earlier, analysts noted that Reckitt Benckiser continued to face medium- and long-term bearish pressure despite a brief technical rebound. The current analysis adds a new dimension, as short- and medium-term momentum have turned positive above key moving averages, with the next catalyst hinging on whether RKT can maintain support at GBX5,034 during potential near-term consolidation.
