Fiserv (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FI#NYSE">FI</a>), when analyzed using the Adhishthana Principles, appears to be at a key crossroads. While the weekly and monthly charts both follow the framework, they offer different signals for what may lie ahead. Here&#8217;s a breakdown.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Weekly Chart Outlook: Fiserv Enters Its Final Phase</h3>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1200" height="542" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27085455/FI-Weekly-Chart-Phase-18-Adhishthana-.png" alt="Fig.1 Fiserv Stock's Weekly Chart (Source: Adhishthana.com)" class="wp-image-16480" style="width:605px;height:auto" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27085455/FI-Weekly-Chart-Phase-18-Adhishthana-.png 1200w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27085455/FI-Weekly-Chart-Phase-18-Adhishthana--300x136.png 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27085455/FI-Weekly-Chart-Phase-18-Adhishthana--1024x463.png 1024w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27085455/FI-Weekly-Chart-Phase-18-Adhishthana--768x347.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Fig.1 Fiserv Stock&#8217;s Weekly Chart (Source: Adhishthana.com)</figcaption></figure>
On the weekly chart, Fiserv has just entered Phase 18, the final step in the 18-Phase Adhishthana Cycle. The cycle began in July 2013, and the current phase will end on December 20, 2026.
According to the principles, Phases 14 to 16, collectively known as the Guna Triads, determine whether a stock achieves Nirvana in Phase 18. For Nirvana to occur, Satoguna or a clean, decisive bullish trend must be present in the triads.
In Fiserv's case, Phases 14 and 16 both contained Satoguna, which sets a structural foundation for a potential move toward new all-time highs during this final phase.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Monthly Chart Outlook: Signs of a Peak?</h3>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1200" height="680" src="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27090008/Fiserv-Monthly-Chart-Adhishthana-.png" alt="Fig.2 Fiserv Stock's Monthly Chart (Source: Adhishthana.com)" class="wp-image-16481" style="width:542px;height:auto" srcset="https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27090008/Fiserv-Monthly-Chart-Adhishthana-.png 1200w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27090008/Fiserv-Monthly-Chart-Adhishthana--300x170.png 300w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27090008/Fiserv-Monthly-Chart-Adhishthana--1024x580.png 1024w,https://contributor-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/27090008/Fiserv-Monthly-Chart-Adhishthana--768x435.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Fig.2 Fiserv Stock&#8217;s Monthly Chart (Source: Adhishthana.com)</figcaption></figure>
On the monthly chart, Fiserv is currently in Phase 11, and the structure tells a different story.
Between Phases 4 and 8, the stock formed a typical Adhishthana Cakra, a sideways arc or channel, which it broke out of in Phase 9. That breakout launched the Adhishthana Himalayan formation, with the stock rallying ~96% in Phase 9 and another ~113% in Phase 10.
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">"The 18th interval is expected to be the level of peak formation; if not, then the 23rd interval. If this phase concludes without forming the peak, it is anticipated to occur in the following phases." &#8211; Adhishthana: The Principles That Govern Wealth, Time &amp; Tragedy
</blockquote>
In Fiserv's case, Phase 10 ended without a peak. The rally extended into Phase 11, where the stock climbed another ~175%, likely forming a peak around the $238 mark. Since then, Fiserv has corrected by 40-45%, signaling that a peak may have been set and the stock is now in the descent leg of its Himalayan formation.
This steep correction aligns with a pattern referred to as the Wrath of Ganga, a phase of aggressive downside movement following the Himalayan peak.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Investor Outlook: Mixed Signals Ahead</h3>
With the weekly chart suggesting a Nirvana move is structurally in place, and the monthly chart implying that a peak may already have formed, Fiserv is at a technical and psychological crossroads.
Adding to this complexity is a recent investigation into potential federal securities law violations. While JPMorgan remains overweight on the stock (with a lowered price target), and Morgan Stanley maintains a similar stance, the uncertainty continues.
Investors should closely watch the $125.05 level, which marks the Phase 10 high on the monthly chart. If this level holds or breaks decisively, it could help confirm whether the current action is indeed a correction or the beginning of a larger move.
Clarity should begin to emerge by December 21, 2025, when the first tranche of weekly Phase 18 completes.

The most oversold stocks in the financial sector presents an opportunity to buy into undervalued companies.
The RSI is a momentum indicator, which compares a stock&#8217;s strength on days when prices go up to its strength on days when prices go down. When compared to a stock&#8217;s price action, it can give traders a better sense of how a stock may perform in the short term. An asset is typically considered oversold when the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/rsi">RSI is below 3</a>0, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Here's the latest list of major oversold players in this sector, having an RSI near or below 30.

A wave of U.S. trade deals with key allies over the past 24 hours reignited Wall Street's rally and boosted investor risk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">appetite across global markets.</a>
President Donald Trump announced agreements with the Philippines, Indonesia and—most significantly—Japan, while the <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/460b7784-88d7-4324-9e4d-dc9692d15e72">Financial Times</a> reported that a U.S.-EU trade deal is imminent, expected to mirror the Tokyo framework.
The U.S.-Japan pact raises the baseline tariff on Japanese goods to 15% from 10%, sidestepping the previously threatened 25% level. Tariffs on Japanese autos have been cut from 25% to 15%. In return, Japan committed to investing $550 billion in the U.S. and easing access to American agricultural and industrial goods.
Markets cheered the progress. The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.5% to a new record high of 6,350, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average surged nearly 1%, or 450 points, nearing its own record. Small-cap stocks led the charge, with the Russell 2000 also jumping 1.0% to its highest level since February.
International equities soared even more. The iShares MSCI Japan Index Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWJ#NYSE">EWJ</a>) rallied 4.9% to an all-time high, the SPDR DJ Euro STOXX 50 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FEZ#NYSE">FEZ</a>) climbed nearly 2%, and the iShares MSCI Mexico ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWW#NYSE">EWW</a>) gained 2.1%.
As optimism over global trade thawed investor caution, demand for safe-haven assets dropped. Gold slid 1.4% to $3,383 per ounce, while silver dipped 0.3%. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) fell 2% to $117,760.
