ALT is trading below its 200-day MA ($3.72) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 48.9 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -20.1% compares to +20.4% for SPY (trailed the market by 40.5%). The current 54.4% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
