MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Magnificent long-term results. Long-term holders have seen +164% over three years and +116% over five, ahead of 80% of the market.

Strong recent results. The stock is outperforming over the past month (-2%).

WATCH

None flagged.

WEAKNESSES

It's down 21% over the past year, now 29% below its 52-week high. That is lagging the market.

The stock is underperforming over three months (-18%) and so far this year (-15%).

BOTTOM LINE

Outperformer in a Drawdown

A proven multi-year compounder now in a meaningful pullback well below its 52-week high. This is the classic fork: either a buy-the-dip in an intact uptrend, or the early stage of a trend change. Wait for the short-term slide to stabilise before adding. The one thing to watch: the one-year trend is weak.
