MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Magnificent long-term results. Long-term holders have seen +1498% over three years and +389% over five, ahead of 90% of the market.

Strong recent results. The stock is outperforming over the past month (+9%).

WATCH

Returns sit at the market level so far this year (+3%).

WEAKNESSES

It's up 10% over the past year, but 52% below its 52-week high. That is a touch behind the market.

The stock is underperforming over three months (-14%).

BOTTOM LINE

Steady Compounder

Dependable multi-year returns with a calmer near-term tape. A reliable long-term trend rather than a short-term breakout. The one thing to watch: the one-year trend is weak.
