Reaching Oversold Territory
The trading session on Wednesday saw a dramatic tumble in the shares of the iShares Short-Term National Muni Bond ETF (Symbol: SUB) as they plummeted to as low as $104.25 per share. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator, a metric utilized to gauge momentum on a scale of zero to 100, signaled the shift into what traders identify as the oversold territory. For a stock to be marked as oversold, the RSI reading must dip below the 30 threshold. In the case of the iShares Short-Term National Muni Bond, the RSI recorded a precarious figure of 26.8, significantly lower than the current RSI reading for the S&P 500, standing at 60.5.
Could this be a silver lining for astute investors? With an RSI of 26.8, some bullish market participants might interpret the heavy recent selling as nearing its end, potentially signaling a window of opportunity to consider entry points on the buy side.
