Concerns: trading below the 200-day MA (long-term downtrend); below the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum negative); 50-day MA is falling (-11.09% over 10 days); RSI 20 — oversold; weak 1-year return of -95.8%; 3-month momentum negative (-83.6%); rising volume on a downtrend (distribution, 2.75x avg). Currently 96.7% off its 52-week high. Score: -7/7.
CRMT is trading below its 200-day MA ($21.31) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 20.3 has dropped into oversold territory, which has historically preceded short-term bounces. The 1-year return of -95.8% compares to +22.9% for SPY (trailed the market by 118.7%). The current 96.7% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
