Applied Digital Corporation Common Stock
Here’s whether Applied Digital Corporation Common Stock (APLD) is worth buying in 2026 — based on weekly-updated price trend, RSI momentum, and return vs. the S&P 500. Our current read: Neutral.
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 +672.8%; rising volume confirms the move (1.28x 30d avg).

APLD is in a confirmed uptrend, trading above both its 50-day ($28.66) and 200-day ($25.11) moving averages. An RSI of 68.1 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of +672.8% compares to +35.1% for SPY (beat the market by 637.7%). The current 25.4% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
