TMC is trading below its 200-day MA ($5.61) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 68.9 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -3.2% compares to +20.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 23.7%). The current 57.8% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
