Leonardo DRS Clears Technical Benchmark, Hitting 80-Plus RS Rating

One important metric to look for in a stock is an 80 or higher Relative Strength Rating. Leonardo DRS now clears that threshold, with a jump from 80 to 84 Monday.

IBD's unique RS Rating tracks technical performance by showing how a stock's price action over the last 52 weeks compares to that of other stocks on the major indexes.

Decades of market research reveals that the top-performing stocks tend to have an RS Rating north of 80 in the early stages of their moves.

Leonardo DRS is building a consolidation with a 37.99 buy point. See if it can clear the breakout price in volume at least 40% higher than normal. Note that it's a fourth-stage base. Such patterns do sometimes lead to significant gains, but they're more likely to fail than first- or second-stage consolidations.

Earnings growth rose last quarter from 20% to 23%. But sales fell from 16% to 6%.

The company earns the No. 17 rank among its peers in the Aerospace/Defense industry group. Embraer ADR, Heico and Heico Cl A are among the top 5 highly rated stocks within the group.
