Strong Short-Term Momentum
The 5-day performance is positive at 3.99%, suggesting recent upward price movement.
Above Average Volume
The current volume (1,060,949) is significantly lower than the 30-day average volume (3,947,310), which could indicate less speculative interest, or if the price is moving up, it could suggest conviction from a smaller, more engaged group of buyers. If the price is falling, it might indicate a lack of strong selling pressure relative to the average.
Significant Medium-Term Decline
The stock has experienced substantial negative performance over the last 1, 6, and YTD periods (-39.19%, -52.49%, -54.68% respectively), indicating significant downward price pressure and investor caution.
Low Dividend Yield
The dividend yield is 0.0%, meaning the company does not currently pay dividends to shareholders, which might be less attractive to income-focused investors.
