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.

Click here for a more detailed rundown of what the RSI does and how it’s used. While there’s usually a pretty good reason if a given stock is running hot (or cold), investors are also on the lookout for opportunities where the price-action has separated from fundamentals.

 

Running Hot

The almost unprecedented level of market carnage over the past five days has had a marked effect on the composition of this week’s list.

Usually there’s at least 40 stocks that register an RSI above 70. This week, there were only 15. In addition, all 47 stocks in last week’s Running Hot list crashed out; each of the 15 companies that made the cut were new entrants.

Here’s a summary of the stocks that were running hot for the two weeks ended Friday, February 28:

Running Cold

Equally so, the fallout from the COVID-19 calamity was also felt at the “cold” end of town, except in the opposite direction. Where there’s usually upwards of 60 stocks on the Running Cold list, this week the figure rose to 200!

As a result, we tightened the rules a bit; only stocks with an RSI reading of 25 or below (rather than 30) made the cut, which reduced the number of stocks to 55. Of those, 39 companies were new entrants.
