PST stock price: Technical overview
The PST stock price trades near €22.07 as of 4:13pm UTC on 19 January 2026, holding above its key simple moving-average cluster, with the 20-, 50-, 100- and 200-day SMAs around €21.77, €21.15, €20.67 and €19.50 respectively. This keeps the price above longer-term trend measures. The 14-day RSI at about 60.7 sits in the upper-neutral zone, while an ADX near 31 signals an established trend backdrop rather than a range-bound phase.
On the topside, the nearest classic pivot resistance comes in around €22.07 (R1), with a daily close above that area bringing the €22.66 region (R2) into focus as the next reference zone. On pullbacks, initial support sits near the €21.09 classic pivot, with the 100-day SMA around €20.67 acting as the first notable moving-average shelf. A sustained move below this level could expose the €20.50 S1 area (TradingView, 19 January 2026).

Poste Italiane (PST): Capital.com analyst view
Poste Italiane’s share price has delivered strong gains over the past two years, rising from around €10 in early 2024 to trade above €22 by 19 January 2026 on Capital.com’s platform. This performance has unfolded alongside continued expansion across the group’s diversified business model – spanning mail, parcels, financial services and insurance – and Italy’s gradual economic expansion. Poste Italiane has also emphasised its role as a strategic pillar for the country and reported growing revenues and profitability in recent updates. At the same time, a higher share price and market capitalisation can make investors more sensitive to any disappointment in earnings, regulation or macro data, meaning strong past gains may also increase the scope for sharper reactions to negative news.
From a fundamental perspective, factors that could support interest in the stock include Poste Italiane’s extensive nationwide network, its mix of recurring fee and interest income, and its positioning in payments, insurance and parcel logistics, which some investors see as linked to ongoing digitalisation and e-commerce trends. However, this exposure also means the business remains sensitive to shifts in Italian growth, consumer confidence, interest-rate conditions and competition, while changes in postal or financial regulation could weigh on profitability as readily as they could create new opportunities.

FAQ
Who owns most of Poste Italiane stock?
Poste Italiane has a mixed ownership structure, with a significant portion held by the Italian state through the Ministry of Economy and Finance, alongside institutional and retail investors. The government stake reflects Poste Italiane’s strategic role in Italy’s postal, financial and payments infrastructure. The remaining shares form the free float and trade on the open market, meaning ownership can change over time as investors buy and sell shares.
What is the five-year Poste Italiane share price forecast?
There is no widely published or reliable five-year PST stock forecast, as most analyst estimates typically focus on a 12-month horizon. Longer-term projections involve greater uncertainty and depend on assumptions about earnings growth, regulation, interest rates and Italy’s economic outlook. As a result, longer-dated forecasts can vary significantly and are subject to change. Past performance and shorter-term targets should not be relied on as indicators of future outcomes.
Is Poste Italiane a good stock to buy?
Whether Poste Italiane is considered a 'good' stock depends on an individual’s objectives, time horizon and tolerance for risk. The company operates across diversified areas such as mail, parcels, payments, insurance and financial services, which some investors view as supporting revenue stability. However, the share price is also influenced by regulation, competition, interest rates and broader macroeconomic conditions. Any evaluation should weigh both potential opportunities and risks rather than focusing on past performance alone.
Could Poste Italiane stock go up or down?
Like any listed share, Poste Italiane’s stock price can move both up and down. Changes may reflect company earnings, guidance, regulation, interest-rate expectations and wider market sentiment, particularly within Italian equities. External factors such as macroeconomic data or shifts in investor positioning can also influence short-term price movements. As a result, forecasts are uncertain and outcomes may differ from analyst expectations or historical patterns.
Should I invest in Poste Italiane stock?
This article does not provide investment advice or recommendations. Deciding whether to invest in Poste Italiane stock depends on your personal financial situation, investment objectives and risk tolerance. Shares can fluctuate in value, and investors may not get back the amount they invest. Carrying out independent research and, where appropriate, seeking professional advice may be useful before making investment decisions.
Can I trade Poste Italiane CFDs on Capital.com?
Yes, you can trade Poste Italiane CFDs on Capital.com. Trading share CFDs lets you speculate on price movements without owning the underlying asset and to take long or short positions. However, contracts for difference (CFDs) are traded on margin, and leverage amplifies both profits and losses. You should ensure you understand how CFD trading works, assess your risk tolerance, and recognise that losses can occur quickly.
