Technical Indicators

2 Buy1 Neutral5 Sell

CXW exhibits a weak technical profile as short- and intermediate-term moving averages sit above the current price near $30, while the 200-day averages remain supportive but distant, signaling longer-term separation. Momentum measures are negative with MACD and CCI indicating selling pressure, and RSI below neutral suggesting limited upside conviction; ADX near 19 points to a lack of strong directional trend. Volatility is moderate with an ATR around 1.56, and on-balance volume is negative, implying distribution. Technical takeaway: Sell.
