When researching a stock like WK Kellogg CO, many investors are the most familiar with Fundamental Analysis — looking at a company's balance sheet, earnings, revenues, and what's happening in that company's underlying business. Investors who use Fundamental Analysis to identify good stocks to buy or sell can also benefit from KLG Technical Analysis to help find a good entry or exit point. Technical Analysis is blind to the fundamentals and looks only at the trading data for KLG stock — the real life supply and demand for the stock over time — and examines that data in different ways. One of those ways is to calculate a Simpe Moving Average ("SMA") by looking back a certain number of days. One of the most popular "longer look-backs" is the KLG 200 day moving average ("KLG 200 DMA"), while one of the most popular "shorter look-backs" is the KLG 50 day moving average ("KLG 50 DMA"). A chart showing both of these popular moving averages is shown on this page for WK Kellogg CO. Comparing two moving averages against each other can be a useful visualization tool: by calculating the difference between the KLG 200 DMA and the KLG 50 DMA, we get a moving average convergence divergence indicator ("KLG MACD"). The KLG MACD chart, in conjunction with the chart of the moving averages, basically helps in visualizing how the moving averages are showing convergence (moving closer together), or divergence (moving farther apart). |
