Overall EAF gets a technical rating of 1 out of 10. EAF has been an average performer in the overall market. Also recent evolutions are not that positive: both the medium and short term time frames give negative signs.
EAF is currently trading in the lower part of its 52 week range, which is not a good signal. Certainly not because the S&P500 Index is trading near new highs.
In the last month EAF has a been trading in the 0.93 - 1.75 range, which is quite wide. It is currently trading near the lows of this range.
Prices have been falling strongly lately, it is better to avoid new long positions here.
EAF has an average volume of 3282920 traded shares per day. This is a good sign as it is always nice to have a liquid stock.
The long term trend is neutral, but the short term trend is negative. Better to stay away from this!
Looking at the yearly performance, EAF did better than 70% of all other stocks. However, this overall performance is mostly based on the strong move around 10 months ago.
EAF is an average performer in the Electrical Equipment industry, it outperforms 48% of 93 stocks in the same industry.
The technical rating of EAF is bad and it also does not present a quality setup 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.
