Each Monday, Stockhead recaps which stocks are most heavily in demand by investors — running hot.

The analysis is based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI), a technical gauge which measures how trading momentum is affecting the price action.

A reading of 70 is seen as the level at which a company may have been overbought. If a stock has a reading of 30 or below, it could be undervalued.

Here’s this week’s list:

Running Hot

There was a new leader on this week’s table — and with good reason — as workplace health platform Konekt (ASX:KKT) ran hot on the back of a $52m takeover offer.

Last week’s leader Opticomm Ltd (ASX: OPC) cooled off slightly but is still running hot, while defence-tech company XTEK Ltd (ASX: XTE) was a new addition to the top five with an RSI reading of 77.39.

The stock has been climbing steadily since the start of the month since it confirmed the acquisition of the US-based HighCom Armour Solutions had been completed.

Speaking with Stockhead earlier this year, XTEK managing director Philippe Odouard said the acquisition was an important step towards gaining a foothold in the huge US military market.
