Pebblebrook Hotel (PEB) Recently Broke Out Above the 50-Day Moving Average
After reaching an important support level, Pebblebrook Hotel (PEB - Free Report) could be a good stock pick from a technical perspective. PEB surpassed resistance at the 50-day moving average, suggesting a short-term bullish trend.
One of the three major moving averages, the 50-day simple moving average is commonly used by traders and analysts to determine support or resistance levels for different types of securities. However, the 50-day is considered to be more important since it's the first marker of an up or down trend.
Over the past four weeks, PEB has gained 10.8%. The company is currently ranked a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), another strong indication the stock could move even higher.
Looking at PEB's earnings estimate revisions, investors will be even more convinced of the bullish uptrend. There have been 5 higher compared to none lower for the current fiscal year, and the consensus estimate has moved up as well.
Investors should think about putting PEB on their watchlist given the ultra-important technical indicator and positive move in earnings estimate revisions.
