Latest Price

6/10Risk

Risk Level: Medium

Executive Summary

At £2,618.00, RELX PLC shows no decisive moving-average alignment, leaving the trend neutral. Across the trailing 30 sessions it gained 7.1%. Momentum indicators put RSI at 53.7 (neutral) with MACD reading bearish. Watch £2,459.00 as support and £2,886.00 as the nearer resistance level.
On valuation the read is fair — earnings multiple of 20.9 versus a 29.6 sector average, below the peer group. Sell-side targets cluster 29.5% above the current quote. Revenue is growing at 2.7% on a 23.3% profit margin. The 2.60% dividend yield looks covered by current payout levels.
Risk scores 6 out of 10, which is elevated for this asset class. With 30-day volatility of 41.6%, a beta of 0.21 and a maximum drawdown of 43.5%, position sizing matters here. The wider market backdrop reads extreme greed at 94 on the fear-greed composite.
Short, medium and long-term reads agree on hold, with conviction of 3/10.
