PSEM 6-month chart
Buy
11 March 2009. In December, PSEM reversed a 6-month downtrend and has been moving upward in a channel since then. It got a nice boost from an earnings suprise in early February but was swept back down with the rest of the market. It has recovered to within the channel and at the 50-day moving average.
- Percentage price oscillator (PPO) — crossing above the signal line
- Volume — not particularly strong, but had big capitulations during the correction; the shake-out should be nearly complete
Based on technical analysis, MarketEdge calls PSEM a "hold" with "mildly deteriorating conditions" in the chart.
