ALT is trading below its 200-day MA ($4.10) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. With an RSI of 71.4, momentum has stretched into overbought territory — short-term pullbacks are common from these levels. The 1-year return of -20.4% compares to +35.1% for SPY (trailed the market by 55.5%). The current 54.7% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
