Investment Opportunities in Oversold Consumer Staples Stocks

Investors looking for undervalued companies may find opportunities among the most oversold stocks in the consumer staples sector.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) serves as a momentum indicator that compares a stock’s strength on days of price increases to days of price declines. It provides traders insight into a stock’s potential short-term performance. An asset is generally regarded as oversold when the RSI falls below 30, according to Benzinga Pro.
