EchoStar Corporation
Here’s whether EchoStar Corporation (SATS) is worth buying in 2026 — based on weekly-updated price trend, RSI momentum, and return vs. the S&P 500. Our current read: Bullish.
Positives: trading above the 200-day MA (long-term uptrend intact); 50-day MA is rising (+1.11% over 10 days); RSI 42 — healthy momentum range; strong 1-year return of +531.1%; rising volume confirms the move (1.51x 30d avg). Concerns: below the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum negative). Currently 22.5% off its 52-week high. Score: +5/7.
SATS is holding above its long-term 200-day MA ($101.67) but has slipped below the 50-day MA ($125.82), pointing to short-term weakness in an otherwise intact trend. An RSI of 41.8 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of +531.1% compares to +22.9% for SPY (beat the market by 508.3%). The current 22.5% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
