Here’s whether Dow Inc. (DOW) is worth buying in 2026 —
based on weekly-updated price trend, RSI momentum, and return vs.
the S&P 500. Our current read: Neutral.
🔵
Neutral
Positives: trading above the 200-day MA (long-term uptrend intact); above the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum positive); RSI 64 — healthy momentum range; strong 1-year return of +36.6%. Concerns: 50-day MA is falling (-1.97% over 10 days); 3-month momentum negative (-10.2%). Currently 24.3% off its 52-week high. Score: +3/7.
DOW is in a confirmed uptrend, trading above both its 50-day ($30.26) and 200-day ($31.07) moving averages. An RSI of 63.8 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of +36.6% compares to +20.5% for SPY (beat the market by 16.1%). The current 24.3% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
