Should You Buy Adma Biologics (ADMA) After Golden Cross?

In this article:

From a technical perspective, ADMA Biologics Inc (ADMA) is looking like an interesting pick, as it just reached a key level of support. ADMA's 50-day simple moving average crossed above its 200-day simple moving average, which is known as a "golden cross" in the trading world.

A golden cross is a technical chart pattern that can signify a potential bullish breakout. It's formed from a crossover involving a security's short-term moving average breaking above a longer-term moving average, with the most common moving averages being the 50-day and the 200-day, since bigger time periods tend to form stronger breakouts.

There are three stages to a golden cross. First, there must be a downtrend in a stock's price that eventually bottoms out. Then, the stock's shorter moving average crosses over its longer moving average, triggering a positive trend reversal. The third stage is when a stock continues the upward momentum to higher prices.

A golden cross contrasts with a death cross, another widely-followed chart pattern that suggests bearish momentum could be on the horizon.

ADMA has rallied 7.1% over the past four weeks, and the company is a #2 (Buy) on the Zacks Rank at the moment. This combination indicates ADMA could be poised for a breakout.

Once investors consider ADMA's positive earnings outlook for the current quarter, the bullish case only solidifies. No earnings estimate has gone lower in the past two months compared to 3 revisions higher, and the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased as well.

Given this move in earnings estimates and the positive technical factor, investors may want to keep their eye on ADMA for more gains in the near future.
