- Rolls Royce share price has been on a steady decline since October, primarily driven by profit taking.
- The company's fundamentals remain healthy and it has a steady cash flow.
- Top analysts like Deutsche Bank and UBS maintain a "Buy" rating on the stock despite recent underperformance.
As November 2025 winds down, Rolls-Royce Holdings plc (LSE: RR.) has had a tough month. On November 24, the stock closed at about 1,029 pence, down over 10% from its mid-month high of nearly 1,150p. This drop comes after a great year where shares jumped over 100% due to strong demand in the aerospace industry.
This is the first time since 2022 that Rolls Royce share price is registering successive monthly losses. With the price falling below key levels, investors are wary. Is it about to fall below the 1,000p mark? Is now the time to buy, and what could make it bounce back?
Why Did Rolls Royce Stock Price Fall in November?
The company’s official release on November 13th said that Rolls-Royce’s £1 billion share repurchase was going well, with £900 million completed by the end of October. The number of flight hours in civil aerospace was more than expected, which is good news for the full-year forecast.
However, sentiment shifted amid broader market rotations away from high-flyers. A 5.38% single-day drop to 1,021p four days prior to November 24, reported by Traders Union, underscored heavy selling despite a recent credit upgrade. In mid-November, the surge started to lose steam as people started to take profits when stocks got close to all-time highs.
Why Rolls Royce Is Still a Buy
Even with the market being unstable, Rolls-Royce’s recovery still looks good and supports the idea that it’s a good investment for the long term. This month, on November 13, 2025, the company released a Trade Update restating its strong full-year guidance for 2025.
Rolls-Royce anticipates an underlying operating profit between £3.1 billion and £3.2 billion, as well as free cash flow between £3.0 billion and £3.1 billion. Most analysts are still positive. For example, Deutsche Bank and UBS recently repeated ‘Buy’ ratings with price targets going up to the 1,220p to 1,350p range. In short, Rolls-Royce is still a buy for investors who believe in its potential, with recovery relying on good performance.
Rolls Royce Share Price Forecast Today
The short-term outlook isn’t great. The Rolls-Royce stock price is below its 20-day (1,117p) and 50-day (1,133) Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), and is attempting to break below the lower Bollinger Band. This confirms the downward trend in November. Still, the main long-term upward trend is still there, as the share price is well above the 200-day SMA (941p).
Pivot points highlight vulnerability. The primary support level is at 1,024p, near recent lows with the second one likely to come at 1,020p, but a sustained break below that marke could eye 1,000p. The RSI at 32 is near oversold levels, which could build momentum for a rebound. Resistance begins at 1,040p, beyond which the downside narrative will be invalid and Rolls Royce share price could target 1,062p. An extended control by the bulls could push the stock higher to test 1,080p.

The drop is mostly due to technical reasons, including taking profits after a big surge earlier in the year. This is also happening with other aerospace companies.
The update reiterated the forecast for the full year 2025, which said that underlying operating profit would be between £3.1 billion and £3.2 billion and free cash flow would be between £3.0 billion and £3.1 billion.
The 1,000p mark is the most important and immediate psychological support level when it comes to crucial prices. A breach below 1,000p isn’t likely in the short-term because of clustered supports, but it might happen if selling continues.
