GPK is trading below its 200-day MA ($14.14) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 57.5 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -50.6% compares to +22.9% for SPY (trailed the market by 73.5%). The current 55.0% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
