Here’s whether USA TODAY Co., Inc. (TDAY) is worth buying in 2026 —
based on weekly-updated price trend, RSI momentum, and return vs.
the S&P 500. Our current read: Caution.
🟡
Caution
Concerns: below the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum negative); 50-day MA is falling (-0.22% over 10 days); rising volume on a downtrend (distribution, 1.62x avg). Currently 23.6% off its 52-week high. Score: -2/7.
TDAY is trading below its 200-day MA (—) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 31.3 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. With ~9 months of trading history, the return since first available bar is +53.0%. The current 23.6% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
