🔴
Bearish
Concerns: trading below the 200-day MA (long-term downtrend); below the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum negative); 50-day MA is falling (-3.31% over 10 days); 3-month momentum negative (-26.1%). Currently 37.9% off its 52-week high. Score: -5/7.
CVNA is trading below its 200-day MA ($72.47) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 31.1 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -7.3% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 23.8%). The current 37.9% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
