Is KHC near its 200-week EMA?
No. KHC is 21.1% below its 200-week EMA ($23.83 against $30.20, 4.3 weekly ATRs below) at the scan of 21 Oct 2026. Long-term downtrend structure: the 50-week EMA is below the 200-week EMA, so the weekly structure is bearish and the 200-week zone does not apply. It has not touched its 200-week EMA since the line could first be measured in Aug 2020 (324 weeks). The 50-week EMA is $24.63 (price −3.2% from it) and the weekly DeMarker is 0.45, neutral.
What the numbers say
The 200-week EMA itself is down 21.6% over two years, a falling long-term line. Weekly closes have been above the line on 0% of the 324 weeks measured, so price has spent long stretches under it. The weekly DeMarker has fallen from 0.59 four weeks ago to 0.45.
Every touch of the 200-week EMA since Aug 2020
From 324 weeks of weekly bars. A touch is a week whose low reached the 200-week EMA after 13 weeks above it. Each row shows how deep the lows went in the 13 weeks after, whether a weekly close fell below the line within four weeks, and where price closed 13 and 52 weeks later, against the EMA at the touch.
No fresh touch of the 200-week EMA since 10 Aug 2020. A touch counts when a weekly low reaches the line after 13 weeks whose lows all stayed above it.

How to read the 200-week zone
The Desk's Portfolio Builder reads three things together: the 50-week EMA above the 200-week, the 200-week EMA rising at least 8% over two years, and price within one weekly ATR of the 200-week line. KHC does not meet all three right now: the 50-week EMA is below the 200-week EMA, so the weekly structure is bearish and the 200-week zone does not apply. The weekly DeMarker adds the momentum read: at 0.45 it is neutral now. This is a long-term, no-leverage way of reading a chart, not a signal to act on.
