When comparing the yearly performance of all stocks, we notice that PRDO is one of the better performing stocks in the market, outperforming 77% of all stocks. However, this overall performance is mostly based on the strong move around 7 months ago.
PRDO is currently trading in the middle of its 52 week range. The S&P500 Index however is currently trading near new highs, so PRDO is lagging the market.
PRDO has an average technical rating and it also does not offer a high 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.
