Disney and this AI stock are among the most oversold stocks this week
The stock market rebounded from a global crash to end Friday higher, but there’s still a chance some names could recover. Stocks had a rough start to the week. Disappointing payroll data coupled with a breakdown in the yen carry trade, not to mention concerns that the Federal Reserve waited too long to cut interest rates, sent major indexes reeling. But after upbeat weekly unemployment numbers on Thursday, indexes rose and the S&P 500 posted its best day since 2022. The broad S&P 500 gained 0.47% in Friday’s session, ending the week down just 0.04%. The Nasdaq Composite closed 0.51% higher, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.13% on Friday. With that in mind, CNBC Pro looked for the most overbought and oversold stocks on Wall Street, as measured by their 14-day relative strength index (RSI). Stocks with a 14-day RSI above 70 are considered overbought, meaning they could be at risk for a decline. Alternatively, stocks with an RSI below 30 are considered oversold, indicating a potential buying opportunity. A rebound could be in store for Disney, with an RSI of 27.7. The company’s shares fell nearly 4% this week, even as the entertainment giant beat Wall Street estimates for its fiscal third quarter. In 2024, the stock, which has a consensus rating of “buy,” is even lower, losing around 4.5%. The company reported that its theme park business in the U.S. was hit by a decline in consumer demand. In a conference call with analysts, Disney executives said they expect attendance to remain flat in the coming quarters. “We’ve seen a little bit of a slowdown in demand. I certainly wouldn’t call that a significant change,” said Hugh Johnston, Disney’s chief financial officer. “I would just call that a kind of slowdown that’s more than offset by the entertainment business.” Take-Two Interactive Software also made it into the oversold category, sporting the highest RSI of the group at nearly 28. On Friday, shares of the video game maker closed more than 4% higher after the company reiterated its full-year guidance for orders and earnings. While shares are slightly up this week, up nearly 1%, the stock is down 10% through 2024.
