Other analysts also see the opportunity to Sonos stock. In April, Raymond James reiterated its strong Buy and $19 price target, saying that Sonos Radio could lead to significantly higher multiples due to the platform approach.

From a technical point of view, Sonos stock broke out during the session on Tuesday from its 200-day moving average to new highs, which has not been seen since the month of February. The relative strength index (RSI) has climbed into overbought territory with a reading of 71.31, but the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) remains in a bullish trend.

Traders should watch for a period of consolidation above the 200-day moving average in the coming sessions. If the stock rebounds more, traders could see a move to test the reaction of the summits of almost $17.00 made at the beginning of February. If the stock breaks the 200-day support level, traders could see a move lower towards the trend line resistance at around $11.00.
