🟡
Caution
Positives: 50-day MA is rising (+2.25% over 10 days); RSI 39 — healthy momentum range; 3-month momentum positive (+9.6%). Concerns: trading below the 200-day MA (long-term downtrend); below the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum negative); weak 1-year return of -50.4%. Currently 53.0% off its 52-week high. Score: -1/7.
NOW is trading below its 200-day MA ($126.70) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 38.7 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -50.4% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 66.9%). The current 53.0% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
