Urban Outfitters (URBN) Crossed Above the 20-Day Moving Average: What That Means for Investors

Urban Outfitters (URBN) is looking like an interesting pick from a technical perspective, as the company reached a key level of support. Recently, URBN crossed above the 20-day moving average, suggesting a short-term bullish trend.The 20-day simple moving average is a well-liked trading tool because it provides a look back at a stock's price over a 20-day period. Additionally, short-term traders find this SMA very beneficial, as it smooths out short-term price trends and shows more trend reversal signals than longer-term moving averages.Similar to other SMAs, if a stock's price moves above the 20-day, the trend is considered positive, while price falling below the moving average can signal a downward trend.Shares of URBN have been moving higher over the past four weeks, up 10.8%. Plus, the company is currently a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) stock, suggesting that URBN could be poised for a continued surge.Once investors consider URBN's positive earnings estimate revisions, the bullish case only solidifies. No earnings estimate has been lowered in the past two months, compared to 6 raised estimates, for the current fiscal year, and the consensus estimate has increased as well.Investors may want to watch URBN for more gains in the near future given the company's key technical level and positive earnings estimate revisions.Zacks' Research Chief Names "Stock Most Likely to Double"Our team of experts has just released the 5 stocks with the greatest probability of gaining +100% or more in the coming months.
