Inghams (ASX: ING) reported FY23 revenue and net profit figures that beat analyst expectations amid a 12.8% year-on-year rise in poultry prices. The company's shares rallied more than 20% since its results on Thursday, 17 August – Making it the most overbought stock on the ASX 200 this week. The 14-day Relative Strength Index is a momentum indicator that measures the magnitude and speed of recent price changes to assess whether or not a stock is overbought or oversold.
An RSI of 70 or above is considered to be overbought, which means the stock is rising too quickly and likely to experience a pullback. Meanwhile, an RSI of 30 or below is considered to be oversold, which means the stock is falling too quickly and is likely to experience a rebound.
Based on this indicator, Inghams is the most overbought with an RSI of 82.

Reporting season is in full swing and the overbought stocks this week are mostly from the companies that rallied on better-than-expected results.
What's interesting is that most of these reporting season winners continued to rally post earnings, with very shallow pullbacks. This makes them appear more technically overbought but the momentum should not be underestimated.
