CMG is trading below its 200-day MA ($35.07) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 39.3 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -30.5% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 47.0%). The current 32.6% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
