One important metric to look for in a stock is an 80 or higher Relative Strength Rating. DHT Holdings just hit that mark, with a jump from 79 to 82 Monday.
Hone Your Stock-Picking Skills By Focusing On These Factors
IBD's proprietary RS Rating measures market leadership by showing how a stock's price movement over the last 52 weeks compares to that of other stocks on the major indexes.
Decades of market research reveals that the best-performing stocks typically have an RS Rating of at least 80 in the early stages of their moves.
DHT Holdings is still within a buying range after moving past an 11.19 entry in a double bottom. Once a stock moves 5% or higher beyond the original entry, it's considered out of a proper buying area.
The company posted negative growth for both sales and earnings last quarter.
The company holds the No. 9 rank among its peers in the Oil&Gas-Transportation/Pipeline industry group. Enbridge, MPLX and Transportadora Gas ADR are among the top 5 highly rated stocks within the group.
