QUEST DIAGNOSTICS INC (DGX)
US74834L1008 - Common Stock
Overall DGX gets a technical rating of 2 out of 10. DGX has been an average performer in the overall market. Also recent evolutions are not that positive: both the medium and short term time frames give negative signs.
DGX is currently showing a bear flag pattern! A bear flag pattern occurs when prices pull back slightly after a strong move down. This may present a good short opportunity.
DGX is currently trading in the upper part of its 52 week range. The S&P500 Index however is currently trading near a new high, so DGX is lagging the market slightly.
The short term trend is negative, the long term trend is neutral. Not much exciting going on here.
When compared to the yearly performance of all other stocks, DGX outperforms 60% of them, which is more or less in line with the market.
DGX is an average performer in the Health Care Providers & Services industry, it outperforms 63% of 108 stocks in the same industry.
DGX has a poor technical rating and the quality of the setup is also not perfect at the moment. Price movement has been a little bit too volatile to find a nice entry and exit point. It is probably a good idea to wait for a consolidation first.
