NASDAQ:WWD - Nasdaq - US9807451037 - Common Stock - Currency: USD
Overall WWD gets a technical rating of 9 out of 10. Both in the recent history as in the last year, WWD has proven to be a steady performer, scoring decent points in every aspect analyzed.
The long and short term trends are both positive. This is looking good!
A new 52 week high is currently being made by WWD, which is a very good signal! Especially since the S&P500 is only trading in the upper part of its 52 week range, so WWD is leading the market.
WWD is currently showing a bull flag pattern! A bull flag pattern occurs when prices pull back slightly after a strong rise up. This may be a nice opportunity for an entry.
When comparing the yearly performance of all stocks, we notice that WWD is one of the better performing stocks in the market, outperforming 87% of all stocks. However, this overall good ranking is mostly due to the recent strong move.
WWD is an average performer in the Aerospace & Defense industry, it outperforms 51% of 65 stocks in the same industry.
Although WWD has an excellent technical rating, it 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.
