CTSH is trading below its 200-day MA ($64.43) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 64.0 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -40.8% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 57.2%). The current 47.8% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
