Bullish

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 (+2.13% over 10 days); RSI 43 — healthy momentum range; 3-month momentum positive (+12.1%).

KMB is in a confirmed uptrend, trading above both its 50-day ($103.85) and 200-day ($103.85) moving averages. An RSI of 42.9 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -14.1% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 30.6%). The current 20.2% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
