🟢
Bullish
Positives: trading above the 200-day MA (long-term uptrend intact); above the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum positive); 50-day MA is rising (+3.21% over 10 days); RSI 63 — healthy momentum range; 3-month momentum positive (+23.1%). Currently 28.2% off its 52-week high. Score: +6/7.
ALK is in a confirmed uptrend, trading above both its 50-day ($41.08) and 200-day ($47.00) moving averages. An RSI of 62.7 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -4.7% compares to +22.9% for SPY (trailed the market by 27.5%). The current 28.2% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
