EVTL is trading below its 200-day MA ($3.78) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 23.5 has dropped into oversold territory, which has historically preceded short-term bounces. The 1-year return of -78.0% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 94.5%). The current 81.2% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
