🔴
Bearish
Positives: RSI 47 — healthy momentum range. Concerns: trading below the 200-day MA (long-term downtrend); below the 50-day MA (medium-term momentum negative); 50-day MA is falling (-6.01% over 10 days); weak 1-year return of -62.2%; 3-month momentum negative (-30.7%). Currently 62.9% off its 52-week high. Score: -5/7.
WHR is trading below its 200-day MA ($62.18) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. An RSI of 47.5 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of -62.2% compares to +16.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 78.7%). The current 62.9% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
