I don’t know whether to classify 8x8 Inc. (Nasdaq: EGHT) as a software company or a communication services company. Investor’s Business Daily classifies it as a software company while Yahoo! Finance lists it as a communication services company. Regardless of the classification, the stock is hitting a key resistance point and a bearish signal was generated.
We see on the daily chart that the stock fell below the $20.50 level back in October. It would eventually drop all the way down to $15.13 before rebounding.
