URG is trading below its 200-day MA ($1.52) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 63.6 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of +12.5% compares to +20.4% for SPY (trailed the market by 7.9%). The current 42.5% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
