Vertiv Holdings (VRT): Cup and Handle Breakout Watch

VRT is setting up a bullish cup and handle pattern that began in late January, with a decisive breakout above the 2025 YTD highs at 153.50–155.84 needed to confirm. A successful move would imply longer-term upside toward the measured pattern target near 253. Technical support is reinforced by the 26- and 40-week moving averages at 112–110, aligning with key retracements at 115.34 (38.2%) and 103.56 (50.0%). We have confidence in the durability of this bullish setup as long as these levels hold.

Notably, VRT is also forming a similar bullish cup and handle on a relative basis versus the S&P 500, suggesting both absolute and relative strength potential.

Fibonacci extensions also provide guidance for VRT

If VRT does not move below last week's at 118.72 and breaks out to confirm the bullish cup and handle, Fibonacci extensions provide tactical to intermediate-term targets at 180 (61.8% extension) and 218 (100% extension). Keeping today's (9/10) upside price gap open, which means not filling the gap, would keep the 118.72 low intact. We view the upside gap and last week's low as important tactical supports for risk management.
