Concerns: trading below the 200-day MA (long-term downtrend); below the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum negative); 50-day MA is falling (-4.56% over 10 days); RSI 24 — oversold; weak 1-year return of -60.4%; 3-month momentum negative (-18.5%); rising volume on a downtrend (distribution, 1.20x avg).

JOBY is trading below its 200-day MA ($11.65) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 23.8 has dropped into oversold territory, which has historically preceded short-term bounces. The 1-year return of -60.4% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 76.9%). The current 66.9% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
