Mentioned

KEY POINTS

  • Ramelius Resources and Pro Medicus are the two most overbought stocks with an RSI of 76 and 72 respectively.
  • Magellan Financial Group and The Star Entertainment are the two most oversold stocks with an RSI of 15 and 19 respectively.

The relentless rise in bond yields drove the market to extreme oversold territory last week, meaning that very few stocks were able to avoid some degree of weakness. This week's overbought stock list includes only two stocks that managed to trade with an RSI of 70 or above: Ramelius Resources (ASX: RMS) and Pro Medicus (ASX: PME).

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, Ramelius Resources is the most overbought stock with an RSI of 76.

Shares in the WA-based gold miner was completely unphased by the sharp drop in gold prices last week, which briefly hit a 7-month low of US$1,820 an ounce. Is this an example of price leading news or maybe Ramelius is just a cut above the rest?

The latest broker coverage for the stock dates back to August reporting season, where Macquarie reiterated an Outperform rating with a $1.60 target price.

"Ramelius' FY23 underlying EBITDA was 7% ahead of our estimate after an inventory movement. The 2 cents per share franked dividend was 1 cent below our assumption," the analysts said.

"Ramelius FY23 result was solid on an underlying basis while net profit was impacted by higher D&A and an impairment at Edna May due to a water inflow at the underground mine. Importantly, Ramelius has retained FY24 guidance."

A few brutally oversold names like Core Lithium (ASX: CXO) and Chalice Mining (ASX: CHN) have finally dropped out of the top ten most oversold stocks list. The stocks haven't bounced. They've just dropped falling.
