Yahoo Finance Golar LNG (GLNG) Crossed Above the 50-Day Moving Average: What That Means for Investors
After reaching an important support level, Golar LNG (GLNG) could be a good stock pick from a technical perspective. GLNG surpassed resistance at the 50-day moving average, suggesting a short-term bullish trend.
One of the three major moving averages, the 50-day simple moving average is commonly used by traders and analysts to determine support or resistance levels for different types of securities. However, the 50-day is considered to be more important since it's the first marker of an up or down trend.
Over the past four weeks, GLNG has gained 9%. The company is currently ranked a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), another strong indication the stock could move even higher.
The bullish case solidifies once investors consider GLNG's positive earnings estimate revisions. No estimate has gone lower in the past two months for the current fiscal year, compared to 2 higher, while the consensus estimate has increased too.
With a winning combination of earnings estimate revisions and hitting a key technical level, investors should keep their eye on GLNG for more gains in the near future.
