🔵
Neutral
Positives: trading above the 200-day MA (long-term uptrend intact); above the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum positive); 50-day MA is rising (+2.66% over 10 days); 3-month momentum positive (+27.2%). Concerns: RSI 73 — overbought, elevated pullback risk; declining volume on rally — weak conviction (0.60x 30d avg). Currently 9.9% off its 52-week high. Score: +3/7.
DHR is in a confirmed uptrend, trading above both its 50-day ($195.43) and 200-day ($202.97) moving averages.
