Buy
2 December 2009. Navios had a big run-up before earnings, and since then it has pulled back and consolidated. After dropping to the 20-day moving average, it has begun climbing again.
- Percentage price oscillator (PPO) — just a tad below the signal line
- Volume — lower since profit-taking and during the pull-back
Based on technical analysis, MarketEdge calls NM a "strong buy" in a "weak upward trend."
Sell

-5%
8 Dec 2009. NM was going to be lost at sea — the PPO line failed to cross above the signal line and, by yesterday, divergence was visibly greater. The likely scenario is for NM to now fall back to the 50-day moving average, and that's more than I want to put at risk.
