Bottom line

CM Technical Analysis Summary

CM (Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce) is in a strong long-term uptrend and trading near the top of its 52-week range. On the daily chart, price at 118.44 holds above the SMA50 (114.48) and SMA200 (99.70) while sitting right at the SMA20 (118.44), with the stock consolidating just below the 52-week high at 122.50. Daily RSI at 54.29 is neutral, and the slightly negative MACD histogram of -0.22 shows near-term momentum cooling after the strong advance. The weekly chart confirms the longer-term strength: price at 118.55 is above all weekly moving averages, RSI at 67.87 is firm but not overbought, and the 252-week return is about +157%. Volume is below average on both timeframes, reflecting a quiet consolidation phase. Key support is at 115.37 (20-day low) and 114.48 (SMA50), with the SMA20 at 118.44 acting as the immediate pivot. Resistance is the 52-week and 20-period high at 122.50. A close above 122.50 would signal a breakout to new highs, while a close below 115.37 would suggest near-term weakness.
