Stock Trend Analysis - Buy, Sell or Hold "Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold, Inc." (FCX)?
Although FCX is currently trading below its 200 day moving average, it is prudent to note that in the last 52 weeks, FCX has been trading above the 200 day moving average for 81% of the time with an average daily volume of 20.7M shares changing hands. This could portend a sustained reversal in trend, or just a slight bump in the road prior to resuming its bullish bias.For the medium term, the 50 day moving average is generally in a trading range with a bearish downward bias. The 20 day moving average is very weak and displaying very bearish bias. FCX may be due for an oversold bounce, but objectively, as long as FCX is trading below its 200 SMA, rallies will be sold into.
