This proprietary rating measures technical performance by using a 1 (worst) to 99 (best) score that shows how a stock's price performance over the trailing 52 weeks matches up against the rest of the market.
Decades of market research reveals that the best-performing stocks tend to have an RS Rating of above 80 in the early stages of their moves.
Insmed has moved more than 5% past an 84.91 entry in a first-stage consolidation, meaning it's now out of a proper buy zone. Look for the stock to create a new chance to pick up shares like a three-weeks tight or pullback to the 50-day or 10-week moving average.
Insmed reported 0% EPS growth last quarter. Sales gains came in at 23%.
Insmed earns the No. 127 rank among its peers in the Medical-Biomed/Biotech industry group. Exelixis, Catalyst Pharmaceuticals and ADMA Biologics are among the top 5 highly rated stocks within the group.
