The most oversold stocks in the energy sector presents an opportunity to buy into undervalued companies.
The RSI is a momentum indicator, which compares a stock’s strength on days when prices go up to its strength on days when prices go down. When compared to a stock’s price action, it can give traders a better sense of how a stock may perform in the short term. An asset is typically considered oversold when the RSI is below 30, according to Benzinga Pro.
Here's the latest list of major oversold players in this sector, having an RSI near or below 30.
Arch Resources Inc ARCH
- On July 25, Arch Resources posted weaker-than-expected quarterly earnings. “During the quarter, the Arch team moved quickly and nimbly in the wake of the tragic bridge collapse in Baltimore, taking steps to facilitate the continuing flow of our coking coal products to steelmakers and redirecting volumes to our 35-percent-owned DTA facility,” said Paul A. Lang, Arch’s CEO. “Through these efforts, the metallurgical segment – in collaboration with our railroad and terminal partners – succeeded in shipping more than two million tons of coking coal even as Baltimore’s deepwater channel remained closed throughout the first 70 days of the quarter before all restrictions were lifted on the shipping channel on June 10.” The company's stock fell around 21% over the past month and has a 52-week low of $125.90.
