Concerns: trading below the 200-day MA (long-term downtrend); below the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum negative); 50-day MA is falling (-4.51% over 10 days); RSI 29 — oversold; weak 1-year return of -40.6%; 3-month momentum negative (-24.2%). Currently 44.7% off its 52-week high. Score: -7/7.
NFLX is trading below its 200-day MA ($92.53) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 28.9 has dropped into oversold territory, which has historically preceded short-term bounces. The 1-year return of -40.6% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 57.1%). The current 44.7% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
