Kohl's (KSS) Just Overtook the 50-Day Moving Average
Kohl's (KSS - Free Report) reached a significant support level, and could be a good pick for investors from a technical perspective. Recently, KSS broke through the 50-day moving average, which suggests 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.
KSS could be on the verge of another rally after moving 36.5% higher over the last four weeks. Plus, the company is currently a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) stock.
Looking at KSS's earnings estimate revisions, investors will be even more convinced of the bullish uptrend. There have been 2 higher compared to none lower for the current fiscal year, and the consensus estimate has moved up as well.
With a winning combination of earnings estimate revisions and hitting a key technical level, investors should keep their eye on KSS for more gains in the near future.
