Technical Rating and Analysis

8

Overall DESC gets a technical rating of 8 out of 10. This is due to a decent performance in both the short and medium term time frames. Compared to the overall market, DESC is only an average performer.

Warning: DESC has an average volume of 944 traded shares per day. This is quite low and it might be dangerous to invest in illiquid stocks.
The long and short term trends are both positive. This is looking good!
DESC is currently trading near its 52 week high, which is a good sign. The S&P500 Index is trading in the upper part of its 52 week range, but not near new highs, so DESC is leading the market.

In the last month DESC has a been trading in a tight range between 33.13 and 34.88.
