ALHC is trading below its 200-day MA ($19.14) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 24.6 has dropped into oversold territory, which has historically preceded short-term bounces. The 1-year return of -5.8% compares to +20.4% for SPY (trailed the market by 26.2%). The current 44.4% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
