ARES is in a confirmed uptrend, trading above both its 50-day ($126.89) and 200-day ($133.95) moving averages. An RSI of 66.8 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -24.4% compares to +20.4% for SPY (trailed the market by 44.8%). The current 25.0% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
