Positives: trading above the 200-day MA (long-term uptrend intact); above the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum positive); strong 1-year return of +128.8%; 3-month momentum positive (+7.8%); rising volume confirms the move (1.20x 30d avg).

IAG is in a confirmed uptrend, trading above both its 50-day ($15.86) and 200-day ($17.23) moving averages. With an RSI of 74.8, momentum has stretched into overbought territory — short-term pullbacks are common from these levels. The 1-year return of +128.8% compares to +20.4% for SPY (beat the market by 108.4%). The current 26.4% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
