Should You Buy 89BIO (ETNB) After Golden Cross?

89BIO (ETNB) is looking like an interesting pick from a technical perspective, as the company reached a key level of support. Recently, ETNB's 50-day simple moving average crossed above its 200-day simple moving average, known as a "golden cross."Considered an important signifier for a bullish breakout, a golden cross is a technical chart pattern that's formed when a stock's short-term moving average breaks above a longer-term moving average; the most common crossover involves the 50-day and the 200-day, since bigger time periods tend to form stronger breakouts.There are three stages to a golden cross. First, there must be a downtrend in a stock's price that eventually bottoms out. Then, the stock's shorter moving average crosses over its longer moving average, triggering a positive trend reversal. The third stage is when a stock continues the upward momentum to higher prices.A golden cross contrasts with a death cross, another widely-followed chart pattern that suggests bearish momentum could be on the horizon.ETNB could be on the verge of a breakout after moving 67.4% higher over the last four weeks. Plus, the company is currently a #2 (Buy) on the Zacks Rank.Looking at ETNB's earnings expectations, investors will be even more convinced of the bullish uptrend.
