# Pullbacks to the 150-Day Moving Average
**Query:** stocks pullback to 150d moving avg
**Data as of:** 2026-10-01

45 US stocks in a confirmed uptrend that have pulled back to within 0-10% above their 150-day moving average, ranked by momentum potential. Screen as of October 1, 2026: each name sits above a rising 50-day average that is itself above the 150-day, so the long-term trend structure is intact while short-term momentum has reset. Financials (regional banks, P&C insurers), AI-adjacent technology and select materials names dominate. RSI readings cluster in the mid-30s to low-50s, and several names carry elevated volatility scores — a mix of lower-risk trend continuation candidates and higher-beta resets with defined support at the 150-day line.

### Pullbacks to the 150-Day Moving Average — Uptrend Intact

| Symbol | Company | Sector | Industry | Theme | Market Cap | Price | 1D Return | 1M Return | 6M Return | % from 150D SMA | % from 50D SMA | RSI (14) | Rel Volume | Momentum Potential | Volatility Potential | P/E (TTM) | Revenue Growth YoY | Technical Patterns | Days to Earnings | Comments |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| SSRM | SSR Mining Inc. | Materials | Gold | Gold & Silver Mining | 6.815e+09 | 33.42 | 0.30% | -6.73% | 6.20% | 8.13% | -0.63% | 42.0397 | 0.8632 | 98.6 | 50.9 | 12.56 | 63.68% | Uptrend | 33 | Gold/silver miner pulling back with the whole precious-metals complex, which has been unwinding even as inflation stays sticky. The 150-day line is the line in the sand — a decisive close below would break the multi-quarter uptrend, while a hold offers a low-cost re-entry into a producer with a strong margin tailwind from elevated realized prices. |
| PGY | Pagaya Technologies Ltd. | Information Technology | Software - Infrastructure | Fintech & Digital Payments | 1.455e+09 | 17.44 | 0.69% | -16.71% | 49.06% | 8.07% | -14.05% | 35.752 | 0.8547 | 98.1 | 67.2 | 12.37 | 26.07% | Uptrend | 40 | AI-driven credit underwriting platform for consumer lenders; the deep-MA50 pullback shows the market still punishes its funding-dependent model. Watch partnership announcements as the catalyst — each new lending network adds fee income with negligible balance-sheet risk, though the stock remains a high-beta proxy on consumer credit conditions. |
| XYZ | Block, Inc. | Information Technology | Software - Infrastructure | Fintech & Digital Payments | 4.448e+10 | 74.04 | 0.69% | -4.93% | 29.83% | 1.98% | -7.11% | 39.4501 | 0.831 | 98 | 57 | 132.21 | 0.30% | Uptrend | 39 | Fintech with a growing Cash App and Square merchant franchise; the reset is happening while the broader payments complex de-rates on capital-cost concerns. Losing ground versus Mastercard/Visa on the year makes it a value-vs-quality debate — the 150-day support is doing real work here. |
| ESEA | Euroseas Ltd. | Industrials | Marine Shipping | Marine Transportation & Shipping | 4.84e+08 | 70.51 | -1.14% | -7.11% | 7.08% | 1.47% | -5.24% | 40.3804 | 0.9608 | 97.8 | 40.1 | 3.61 | 7.03% | Upward channel (10%), Uptrend | 47 | Small-cap dry bulk/marine owner benefiting from the tanker and freight-rate surge that has become one of the strongest commodity-linked themes. Rates are the entire earnings story; a decline in charter rates would hit fast, so treat the 150-day test as a bet on continued shipping tightness. |
| IDCC | InterDigital, Inc. | Information Technology | Software - Application | Technology Licensing & Mobile Platforms | 8.772e+09 | 339.93 | 4.25% | 6.26% | 11.48% | 9.45% | 4.14% | 56.5524 | 0.7101 | 97.4 | 36.7 | 40.04 | -3.97% | Uptrend | 28 | Wireless and video patent licensor whose earnings are lumpy and contract-driven. The recurring licensing renewals against consumer-device makers give it unusually high margins and a takeover optionality angle; the recent pullback is more multiple compression than any deterioration in the royalty pipeline. |
| MITK | Mitek Systems, Inc. | Information Technology | Software - Application | Cybersecurity | 8.099e+08 | 17.95 | 5.28% | 0.62% | 30.55% | 9.20% | 1.06% | 52.5261 | 1.0453 | 97.1 | 54.6 | 38.19 | 4.42% | Upward channel (17%), Uptrend | 70 | Identity-verification software for banks and mobile check deposits; a small-cap name where a single large-bank contract win moves the needle. The chequered history of accounting restatements keeps a governance discount on the stock despite the recovery in operating momentum. |
| IESC | IES Holdings, Inc. - Common Stock | Industrials | Engineering & Construction | Power Generation & Utilities | 1.316e+10 | 330.16 | 2.83% | 9.84% | 38.59% | 5.96% | -1.31% | 37.6067 | 0.787 | 97 | 38.4 | 21.98 | 16.89% | Uptrend | 50 | Electrical and infrastructure contractor levered to data-center power and grid buildout — one of the purest ways to play electricity demand from AI campuses. The pullback looks like profit-taking after a huge run rather than a fundamental break; backlog conversion is the key swing factor. |
| MDB | MongoDB, Inc. | Information Technology | Software - Infrastructure | Enterprise Cloud Applications | 2.829e+10 | 351.73 | 0.89% | -19.00% | 41.05% | 7.23% | -9.46% | 41.7405 | 1.2308 | 97 | 17.4 | — | 22.79% | Uptrend | 61 | Database platform with the AI-era enterprise data layer story; it is the most extended pullback in the list, reflecting disappointment around consumption-based revenue growth rather than a loss of competitive position. Atlas consumption re-acceleration is the catalyst that would re-rate it. |
| HAFC | Hanmi Financial Corporation | Financials | Banks - Regional | US Regional & Community Banks | 9.254e+08 | 31.21 | 1.00% | 1.13% | 21.58% | 4.29% | -1.69% | 43.2054 | 0.9831 | 96.9 | 12.9 | 10.51 | 15.28% | Uptrend | 20 | Korean-American community bank with a large SBA lending book; net interest margin should benefit from a steeper curve, but deposit costs remain the swing factor. A small-cap bank sitting right on trend support is a rate-regime expression as much as a stock story. |
| LB | LandBridge Company LLC | Energy | Oil & Gas Equipment & Services | Oil & Gas Royalty & Land | 6.327e+09 | 80.77 | -0.49% | -5.91% | 22.42% | 8.39% | -1.85% | 42.5735 | 1.1156 | 96.7 | 81.7 | 72.12 | 81.07% | Uptrend | 39 | Permian-focused land and surface rights owner — a royalty-like Energy name whose revenue is tied to acreage activity rather than commodity price alone. The high P/E reflects the earnings ramp ahead of infrastructure buildout; the risk is customer concentration in a handful of operators. |
| ATLC | Atlanticus Holdings Corporation | Financials | Credit Services | Consumer Financial Services | 1.355e+09 | 89.29 | 2.01% | 0.06% | 65.11% | 6.69% | -7.31% | 42.7876 | 0.5657 | 96.6 | 20 | 11.6 | 50.09% | Uptrend | 39 | Consumer credit provider to near-prime borrowers; credit quality is the whole thesis. Any tick up in delinquencies hits earnings disproportionately, but the stock has been a standout compounder because its private-label and point-of-sale channels keep originating volume resilient. |
| BLX | Bladex, Inc. Class E | Financials | Banks - Regional | Latin American Banks | 2.079e+09 | 55.21 | 0.35% | 1.83% | 14.01% | 1.67% | -0.79% | 50.6139 | 1.3533 | 96.5 | 42.8 | 9.11 | 14.10% | Uptrend | 28 | Trade-finance bank for Latin American corporates, effectively a spread business on regional trade flows. Latin American equities have been among the weakest markets over the past month, which explains the pause; a stabilizing peso and Mexican/Andean trade activity would be the tailwind. |
| TOST | Toast, Inc. | Information Technology | Software - Infrastructure | Restaurant Technology | 1.689e+10 | 29.23 | 0.83% | -12.98% | 12.12% | 0.83% | -11.20% | 34.0114 | 0.8485 | 96.3 | 100 | 37 | 24.05% | Uptrend | 33 | Restaurant point-of-sale and payroll platform; its theme has been one of the worst performers over the past month as small-restaurant closures pressure net location adds. The 150-day hold matters because the long-term trend still reflects durable share gains in a fragmented market. |
| PAY | Paymentus Holdings, Inc. | Information Technology | Software - Infrastructure | Fintech & Digital Payments | 3.88e+09 | 30.81 | 0.55% | -12.30% | 24.03% | 6.83% | -14.50% | 37.0754 | 0.9482 | 96.2 | 32.4 | 46.68 | 37.25% | Uptrend | 32 | Billing and payments infrastructure for utilities, insurers and government — a recurring-revenue backlog story with unusually low churn. The valuation remains rich, making it vulnerable to multiple compression even as underlying transaction volume keeps compounding. |
| AMZN | Amazon.com, Inc. | Consumer Discretionary | Internet Retail | Online Retail Marketplaces | 2.677e+12 | 248.23 | -0.37% | -2.62% | 17.88% | 0.90% | -3.11% | 44.2035 | 0.8286 | 95.8 | 24.6 | 19.97 | 12.38% | Uptrend | 29 | Mega-cap anchors the screen by size and offers the cleanest AI-infrastructure exposure via AWS plus retail-margin expansion. Its pullback is shallow and orderly compared with the rest of the list — a useful quality counterweight for anyone building a basket from these names. |
| TECK | Teck Resources Ltd | Materials | Copper | Gold & Silver Mining | 3.395e+10 | 65.22 | -0.87% | -2.22% | 22.98% | 7.58% | -0.72% | 46.3631 | 0.8833 | 95.6 | 36.2 | 17.77 | 5.49% | Uptrend | 28 | Copper producer with a pending merger story and exposure to electrification demand; copper has held up far better than gold and silver over the past quarter. Copper-grade and mine-development execution are the medium-term swing factors. |
| SW | Smurfit WestRock plc | Consumer Discretionary | Packaging & Containers | Packaging & Containers | 2.258e+10 | 43.04 | -2.40% | -5.26% | 9.47% | 0.33% | -7.59% | 38.745 | 1.1072 | 95.5 | 31.5 | 45.79 | 47.70% | Upward channel (0%), Uptrend | 27 | Corrugated packaging consolidator where the merger integration is the central narrative — synergies are landing but volume demand remains soft. A defensive industrial with pricing power, trading at the very bottom of an upward channel. |
| GRND | Grindr Inc. | Information Technology | Software - Application | Dating Apps | 2.463e+09 | 14.17 | -8.17% | -8.76% | 18.58% | 0.81% | -10.72% | 35.781 | 3.0056 | 95.4 | 100 | 30.15 | 27.64% | Uptrend | 35 | Dating app with an ad-heavy monetization model; the sharp one-day drop and tripled volume suggest a specific negative catalyst rather than drift. High volatility score — this is a momentum-collapse candidate with real fundamental risk if user engagement metrics soften. |
| ABNB | Airbnb, Inc. | Consumer Discretionary | Travel Services | Airlines | 9.609e+10 | 160.47 | -0.11% | -12.09% | 28.18% | 8.82% | -5.15% | 43.3656 | 0.9992 | 95.3 | 57.2 | 36.64 | 10.26% | Uptrend | 35 | Travel marketplace with an asset-light model and expanding margins, but the Consumer Discretionary sector has been one of the weakest over the past month. International bookings and alternative-accommodation supply growth are the swing factors; the 150-day line has held all year. |
| INCY | Incyte Corporation | Health Care | Biotechnology | Oncology Therapeutics | 2.374e+10 | 117.14 | -3.47% | -6.30% | 24.22% | 8.18% | -5.27% | 36.2178 | 1.479 | 95.2 | 55.6 | 14.9 | 21.22% | Uptrend | 26 | Biotech with a maturing Jakafi franchise and a pipeline that must replace the eventual patent cliff. Elevated volume on the pullback and a cheap multiple reflect the market's skepticism about pipeline conversion — a data readout is a binary event here. |
| ATI | ATI Inc. | Industrials | Metal Fabrication | Steel Production | 2.603e+10 | 191.14 | 0.92% | -4.88% | 26.37% | 6.46% | -5.63% | 46.6821 | 0.7679 | 94.7 | 70.3 | 55.89 | 5.16% | Uptrend | 26 | Aerospace and defense materials supplier benefiting from jet-engine and titanium demand; the 1-year move is one of the largest in the screen, so this is profit-taking in an established leader rather than a broken trend. Defense and aero backlogs provide unusual visibility. |
| SKYW | SkyWest, Inc. | Industrials | Airlines | Airlines | 3.793e+09 | 97.69 | 0.79% | 4.66% | 4.26% | 2.89% | -4.47% | 46.6275 | 0.6541 | 94.7 | 47.9 | 9.7 | 15.03% | Uptrend | 29 | Regional airline with improving pilot-cost and capacity dynamics; earnings are highly cyclical and fuel-sensitive, but the valuation is low and the trend structure intact. Watch contract flying arrangements with major carriers as the earnings stabilizer. |
| BLLN | BillionToOne, Inc. | Health Care | Diagnostics & Research | Life Science Tools & Reagents | 4.991e+09 | 105.76 | -0.64% | 14.56% | 50.85% | 9.33% | -2.00% | 47.5419 | 0.8364 | 94.6 | 44.2 | 148.96 | 99.97% | Uptrend | 35 | Molecular diagnostics name in the fast-growing non-invasive prenatal testing space — one of the strongest themes by one-month returns. It is early in its public life, so the trend structure has limited history and the valuation is a premium growth multiple. |
| MTCH | Match Group, Inc. | Communication Services | Internet Content & Information | Dating Apps | 9.361e+09 | 40.13 | -0.05% | -4.25% | 30.37% | 9.78% | -0.52% | 43.6927 | 0.9208 | 94.5 | 25.5 | 14.23 | 0.22% | Upward channel (18%), Uptrend | 33 | Dating app parent with a large cash-generating Tinder base offset by declining user trends. Sitting near the bottom of an upward channel, the story hinges on cost discipline and any stabilization in paying-user counts; buybacks provide downside support. |
| NTRS | Northern Trust Corporation | Financials | Asset Management | Asset Servicing & Custody Banks | 3.096e+10 | 169.2 | -0.09% | -6.94% | 20.77% | 1.03% | -7.03% | 30.5215 | 0.9888 | 94.4 | 7.5 | 14.54 | 6.13% | Uptrend | 20 | Custody and asset-servicing bank with fee-heavy revenue and rate-sensitive net interest income; falling long-bond yields pressure the earnings model. A low-volatility, capital-return name — the pullback is more macro than company-specific. |
| TPC | Tutor Perini Corporation | Industrials | Engineering & Construction | Construction Engineering & Services | 4.381e+09 | 83.26 | 0.90% | -3.79% | 5.97% | 2.13% | -5.38% | 42.1237 | 0.6116 | 94.3 | 57.8 | 35.89 | 28.11% | Uptrend | 34 | Civil infrastructure contractor with a massive backlog tied to highways, water and transit programs. Earnings are episodic and litigated-megaproject risk is real, but the multi-year funding tailwind keeps the trend intact. |
| KB | KB Financial Group Inc | Financials | Banks - Regional | Latin American Banks | 3.787e+10 | 122.08 | -0.83% | -2.05% | 21.08% | 8.93% | -0.76% | 43.2183 | 0.7412 | 94.3 | 3.9 | 10.24 | 17.77% | Uptrend | 28 | Korean financial group with high dividend yield and shareholder-return reform momentum; it is the only name here that has not reported recently, adding event risk near term. Interest-rate and won dynamics drive the return profile more than idiosyncratic factors. |
| BTSG | BrightSpring Health Services, I | Health Care | Health Information Services | Home Health & Post-Acute Care | 1.133e+10 | 57.26 | 0.90% | -3.21% | 36.24% | 1.17% | -5.66% | 45.9542 | 0.8976 | 94.2 | 77.8 | 51.12 | 28.18% | Uptrend | 29 | Home-health and specialty pharmacy provider where reimbursement policy is the dominant risk and the dominant opportunity. Rising volatility score reflects the binary nature of payer rate decisions — a name to size carefully on the 150-day test. |
| WASH | Washington Trust Bancorp, Inc. | Financials | Banks - Regional | US Regional & Community Banks | 7.206e+08 | 37.78 | -0.55% | -2.02% | 14.77% | 7.23% | -3.76% | 37.3427 | 0.7817 | 93.8 | 22.8 | 13.07 | 127.57% | Uptrend | 19 | Small New England community bank with a high P/E off a low earnings base; net interest margin sensitivity to the curve makes it a rate-regime trade. Thin float and limited liquidity mean the trend can move quickly in either direction. |
| UVE | UNIVERSAL INSURANCE HOLDINGS IN | Financials | Insurance - Property & Casualty | Property & Casualty Insurance | 1.2e+09 | 43.13 | 2.47% | -1.33% | 33.97% | 9.97% | -0.40% | 50.1321 | 0.6481 | 93.8 | 38.3 | 5.67 | 5.48% | Upward channel (20%), Uptrend | 22 | Florida-focused property and casualty insurer; pricing has been strong but catastrophe exposure is a real tail risk. Sitting at the top of an upward channel with a low P/E, it is a higher-risk name if the Atlantic storm season turns active. |
| WTS | Watts Water Technologies, Inc. | Industrials | Specialty Industrial Machinery | Water Infrastructure & Flow Control | 1.2e+10 | 359.49 | 1.50% | 1.05% | 23.15% | 8.79% | -0.51% | 52.1467 | 1.393 | 93.7 | 42.7 | 31.37 | 8.27% | Uptrend | 28 | Water infrastructure and flow-control manufacturer with steady replacement demand and a strong buyback record. A quality industrial, but tariffs and construction-cycle softness are the main threats to the current uptrend. |
| THG | Hanover Insurance Group Inc | Financials | Insurance - Property & Casualty | Property & Casualty Insurance | 7.554e+09 | 216.94 | 1.32% | -3.57% | 27.05% | 8.42% | -3.19% | 40.0403 | 0.9029 | 93.7 | 23.2 | 10.39 | 5.72% | Uptrend | 28 | Commercial P&C insurer benefiting from hard-market pricing into a lower-rate environment. Low volatility score makes it a defensive choice within a counter-cyclical sector that has been one of the worst performers recently. |
| FTDR | frontdoor, inc. | Consumer Discretionary | Personal Services | Uniform & Workplace Solutions | 5.198e+09 | 75.45 | 3.19% | -5.11% | 38.39% | 7.83% | -5.02% | 44.0552 | 1.0862 | 93.6 | 63.3 | 19.91 | 13.56% | Uptrend | 34 | Home-services subscription platform with high recurring revenue and strong free cash flow; the near-non-discretionary nature of its business makes it resilient in a weak Consumer Discretionary tape. Refi activity is a secondary demand driver. |
| VRTX | Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorpor | Health Care | Biotechnology | Neurology & Rare Diseases, Pharmaceuticals | 1.284e+11 | 506.74 | -3.07% | -7.47% | 13.30% | 6.41% | -2.09% | 40.1069 | 0.9848 | 93.6 | 36.8 | 29.51 | 8.90% | Uptrend | 32 | Large-cap biotech with a dominant cystic fibrosis franchise, but it sits in the weakest theme over the past month following a pipeline setback. A diversified, cash-rich name where the pullback is sentiment-driven and the risk is largely priced in. |
| DLO | DLocal Limited | Information Technology | Software - Infrastructure | Fintech & Digital Payments | 4.04e+09 | 13.73 | -0.22% | -7.42% | 12.23% | 2.73% | -6.08% | 37.771 | 0.473 | 93.5 | 43.3 | 20.19 | 46.60% | Uptrend | 41 | Emerging-markets cross-border payments platform with high revenue growth and a volatile take-rate model; currency and Latin American volume growth drive the swings. Low relative volume suggests this pullback is quiet rather than forced. |
| KRYS | Krystal Biotech, Inc. | Health Care | Biotechnology | Neurology & Rare Diseases | 9.629e+09 | 325.31 | -2.18% | -10.59% | 25.65% | 4.07% | -5.03% | 38.1683 | 0.5913 | 93.3 | 50.1 | 40.71 | 33.94% | Uptrend | 32 | Gene-therapy name with a rare-disease-first commercial model; the entire valuation rests on a handful of pipeline candidates, so news flow is binary. The recent move mirrors the broad unwind in Neurology & Rare Diseases names. |
| IBKR | Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. | Financials | Capital Markets | Asset Management | 1.462e+11 | 85.81 | 0.46% | -5.07% | 26.60% | 1.80% | -5.36% | 39.6605 | 1.3798 | 93.2 | 16 | 34.05 | 23.42% | Upward channel (0%), Uptrend | 20 | Electronic broker levered to retail trading activity and higher-for-longer rates on its client cash balances. The stock has been a quiet compounder but falling yields would compress the interest-income engine that has driven recent earnings. |
| ECPG | Encore Capital Group Inc | Financials | Credit Services | Consumer Financial Services | 2e+09 | 94.3 | -0.15% | 1.39% | 33.06% | 9.87% | -3.28% | 42.1791 | 0.5799 | 93.1 | 100 | 7.17 | 34.37% | Upward channel (0%), Uptrend | 34 | Debt-buyer whose earnings depend on charge-off recoveries and purchasing volumes; rising credit stress is a double-edged sword — it lifts collections but raises funding costs. Very high volatility score makes it a speculative trend-continuation candidate. |
| MOV | Movado Group Inc. | Consumer Discretionary | Luxury Goods | Apparel & Footwear | 7.575e+08 | 33.95 | 2.01% | 1.16% | 43.10% | 7.56% | -2.51% | 50.7372 | 0.745 | 93 | 53.1 | 18.76 | 2.74% | Uptrend | 54 | Watchmaker with heavy tariff and import-cost exposure; the modest market cap and low liquidity exaggerate moves. A comeback trade on brand licensing and a recovery in discretionary watch demand rather than a durable compounder. |
| CR | Crane Company | Industrials | Specialty Industrial Machinery | Motion & Fluid Control Technologies | 1.193e+10 | 206.32 | 1.13% | 3.15% | 19.48% | 4.60% | -1.54% | 52.7665 | 0.5659 | 93 | 19.1 | 35.94 | 8.16% | Uptrend | 26 | Diversified industrial with aerospace and fluid-control exposure; the steady buyback and high-margin payment-technology segment support earnings quality. It has been one of the relative winners within a weak Industrials sector. |
| FSM | Fortuna Mining Corp. | Materials | Gold | Gold & Silver Mining | 2.805e+09 | 11.17 | -0.62% | -4.94% | 7.09% | 10.00% | 1.31% | 44.5993 | 0.9946 | 92.9 | 100 | 9.39 | 39.84% | Uptrend | 34 | Silver and gold miner with leverage to precious-metals prices; the high volatility score reflects the metal price sensitivity rather than operating issues. A hold of the 150-day line would confirm that the bullion consolidation is a pause, not a reversal. |
| GSAT | Globalstar, Inc. | Communication Services | Telecom Services | Satellite & Space-Based Services | 1.074e+10 | 82.88 | -0.01% | 1.86% | 20.94% | 6.37% | 0.91% | 56.6015 | 0.7689 | 92.8 | 54.7 | — | 9.04% | Uptrend | 35 | Satellite communications operator whose spectrum and constellation assets are the core value; the stock has been a standout one-year performer on connectivity demand. Close to its 52-week high makes this a shallow, orderly pullback with relatively low technical risk. |

### Sector Map — Names Pulled Back to the 150-Day SMA

_[heatmap: Sector Map — Names Pulled Back to the 150-Day SMA]_

### Screen Takeaway

## Pullbacks to the 150-day — structure over screenshots

The October tape is punishing breadth: the share of stocks above their 50-day average has fallen toward the mid-20s while support breaks outnumber breakouts by roughly eight to one. Against that backdrop, a name that pulls back to its **150-day moving average while its 50-day remains above it** is telling you something specific — the *intermediate* trend has reset, but the *long-term* trend has not. That is the definition of a buyable pullback rather than a broken chart.

### What the screen is really selecting for

- **Not oversold breakdowns.** Every name here still has `ma50 > ma150` and an active uptrend flag. RSI readings cluster in the mid-30s to low-50s — cooled, not capitulated.
- **Distance from the 150-day is tight.** Most names sit 0-5% above the line, which makes the level an actionable stop with a defined risk budget rather than a theoretical one.
- **Two distinct populations.** Names 0-2% above the 150-day are effectively *at* support and are immediate decisions; names 7-10% above (SSRM, LB, INCY, UVE, FSM, MITK, IDCC, AZN-class distances) are still in the upper half of their pullback range and have room to fall further before the level is tested.

### Sector texture

Financials dominate the list — regional and community banks (HAFC, WASH, BLX, KB), credit providers (ATLC, ECPG) and P&C insurers (UVE, THG). This is consistent with a financials sector that has de-rated on rising long-bond yields and capital-scarcity concerns even as credit fundamentals hold. Insurance and custody names carry the lowest volatility scores; consumer-credit names carry the highest.

The technology cohort is split between **AI-adjacent hardware/engineering** (IESC, ATI, WTS, CR) — the supply-chain beneficiaries of the compute buildout — and **fintech/app software** (XYZ, PAY, TOST, DLO, MDB), where the reset reflects multiple compression as much as any earnings revision.

A third cluster is thematic and crowded: two dating apps (GRND, MTCH) and two precious-metals miners (SSRM, FSM) sit in some of the worst-performing themes of the past month. Those are the highest-risk continuations in the list.

### How to use it

The actionable pattern is a name holding the 150-day line on **declining volume** with an RSI recovering off the high-30s — that is a coil, not a slide. Names doing the opposite, breaking the 150-day with volume expansion (PRGS, GRND), are the ones the trend filter will eventually remove. Prefer the low-volatility, cash-generating names near the line, and treat the wide-gap, high-volatility names as trades with tight invalidation.
