CMP Technical Rating and Analysis

5

Taking everything into account, CMP scores 5 out of 10 in our technical rating. In the last year, CMP was one of the better performers, but we do observe some doubts in the very recent evolution.

  • The long term trend is positive and the short term trend is neutral. The long term trend may just continue or reversal may be around the corner!
  • CMP is part of the Metals & Mining industry. There are 157 other stocks in this industry. CMP outperforms 71% of them.
  • CMP is currently trading in the upper part of its 52 week range. The S&P500 Index is also trading in the upper part of its 52 week range, so CMP is performing more or less in line with the market.
  • Looking at the yearly performance, CMP did better than 92% of all other stocks. However, this overall performance is mostly based on the strong move around 10 months ago.
  • In the last month CMP has a been trading in the 20.82 - 25.19 range, which is quite wide. It is currently trading in the middle of this range, so some resistance may be found above.
