U.S. Lime & Minerals Shows Rising Relative Price Performance; Still Shy Of Key Threshold

U.S. Lime & Minerals saw a positive improvement to its Relative Strength (RS) Rating on Monday, with an increase from 70 to 78.

When To Sell Stocks To Lock In Profits And Minimize Losses

This exclusive rating from Investor's Business Daily identifies market leadership with a 1 (worst) to 99 (best) score. The rating shows how a stock's price behavior over the trailing 52 weeks stacks up against all the other stocks in our database.

Decades of market research shows that the market's biggest winners often have an 80 or higher RS Rating as they begin their largest runs. See if U.S. Lime & Minerals can continue to rebound and clear that threshold.

U.S. Lime & Minerals has risen more than 5% past an 87.13 entry in a third-stage consolidation, meaning it's now out of a proper buy zone. Look for the stock to create a new buying opportunity like a three-weeks tight or pullback to the 50-day or 10-week line.

Earnings growth fell last quarter from 57% to 53%. But sales moved higher, from 22% to 27%. Look for the next report on or around Jul. 30.

The company earns the No. 1 rank among its peers in the Building-Cement/Concrete/Aggregates industry group. Smith-Midland and Vulcan Materials are also among the group's highest-rated stocks.
