The eight-day simple moving average (SMA) at $279.76, 20-day SMA at $287.43 and 50-day SMA at $281.67 all further reinforce the bearish outlook, as the stock remains consistently below these critical levels.

Though, the 200-day SMA at $276.13 might hint at some longer-term bullish sentiment.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) at a negative 2.42 signals downside momentum, while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 40.45 indicates the stock is approaching oversold conditions but still within bearish territory.

Investors should exercise caution as technical indicators point to continued risk of bearish movement for FedEx stock.
