Technical Rating and Analysis

3

We assign a technical rating of 3 out of 10 to HIFS. Although HIFS is scoring some points because its good overall performance in the market in the past year, recent evolutions are not that positive. Both the medium and short term picture give negative signs.

The short term trend is negative, as is the long term trend. There should be more interesting stocks out there.
HIFS is currently showing a bear flag pattern! A bear flag pattern occurs when prices pull back slightly after a strong move down. This may present a good short opportunity.
Volume is considerably higher in the last couple of days. In combination with the strong move down this is a bad signal.
HIFS is part of the Banks industry. There are 395 other stocks in this industry. HIFS outperforms 71% of them.
Looking at the yearly performance, HIFS did better than 82% of all other stocks. However, this overall performance is mostly based on the strong move around 10 months ago.
HIFS is currently trading in the middle of its 52 week range. The S&P500 Index however is trading in the upper part of its 52 week range, so HIFS is lagging the market slightly.
