Both the short term and long term trends are positive. This is a very positive sign.

AHT is currently trading in the middle of its 52 week range. The S&P500 Index however is currently trading near new highs, so AHT is lagging the market.
Although AHT has an excellent technical rating, it does not present a decent entry opportunity at the moment. Price movement has been a little bit too volatile to find a nice entry and exit point. It is probably a good idea to wait for a consolidation first.
