Technical analysis reads price and volume to judge momentum and timing. It complements the fundamentals above — it does not replace them. Here is what PNR's chart says today, with each tool explained.
Trend — moving averages. A moving average is the average closing price over a window, which smooths out daily noise. PNR trades near $74.03, below its 50-day average ($79.13) and 200-day average ($97.11). Price below both averages is a downtrend — momentum is against buyers for now.
Momentum — RSI. The Relative Strength Index runs 0–100 and measures how strong recent gains are versus losses. Above 70 is "overbought", below 30 "oversold". At 57 it is in neutral territory — neither stretched nor washed out.
MACD. MACD compares two moving averages to flag shifts in momentum. Its histogram is currently positive — short-term momentum is improving.
Volatility — ATR. Average True Range is the typical daily move. PNR's is $1.86 (~2.5% of price), so swings of about that size each day are normal — handy for setting a stop that isn't too tight.
Support & resistance. Over the last month PNR found buyers near $69.93 (support) and sellers near $76.58 (resistance); its 52-week range is $69.93–$113.95. A decisive break beyond either edge often marks the next move.
Volume. The latest session traded 0.7× the 20-day average — lighter than usual, so the move carries less conviction. Rising volume on up-days suggests real buying; on down-days, real selling.

Educational model on sample fundamentals — not a forecast or investment advice. Outputs are only as good as your assumptions.
The case for PNR:
- High net margins (16.0%) point to pricing power or efficiency.
- Strong return on equity (17.7%) shows capital is put to work well.
- Healthy free-cash-flow yield (~5.1%) funds buybacks and dividends.
