Consolidating Above Prior Highs and Above 50-Day Moving Average

Cross Country Healthcare (CCRN +$0.53 or +1.58% to $33.98) has posted 2 gains with lighter volume after halting its slide since suffering a damaging volume-driven loss on Friday, 11/04/22, It briefly undercut its "max buy" level.  Prior highs in the $30.50 area define important near-term support to watch along with its 50-day moving average (DMA) line ($31.10).

CCRN was highlighted yellow with pivot point cited based on its 7/21/22 high plus 10 cents in the 9/09/22 mid-day report (read here). It was last shown in greater detail on 10/03/22 with an annotated graph under the headline, ""

CCRN has a 99 Earnings Per Share Rating, the highest possible. It recently reported Sep '22 quarterly earnings +75% on +70% sales revenues versus the year ago period. Prior quarterly comparisons showed strong sales revenues and earnings increases. Annual earnings growth (A criteria) has been strong since a downturn in FY '17 and '18.

The company has only 38.2 million shares outstanding (S criteria), which can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. The number of top-rated funds owning its shares rose from 326 in Sep '21 to 402 in Sep '22, a reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. Its current Up/Down Volume Ratio of 1.6 is an unbiased indication its shares have been under accumulation over the past 50 days.  It has a Timeliness Rating of A and Sponsorship Rating of B.
