Is FuelCell overvalued?
From an investment perspective, FuelCell shares trade at a steep price-sales ratio of 26.66, making the stock too expensive for value investors.
However, analysts are optimistic about its earnings potential. They expect its bottom line to improve by a whopping 77% this year before rising by a further 36.70% next year.
Therefore, the stock could be an exciting option for growth investors willing to overlook the short-term turbulence.
Technically, FuelCell shares seem to be trading within a descending channel formation in the intraday chart. As a result, the stock has fallen into the oversold conditions of the 14-day RSI.
Therefore, investors could target extended rebound profits at about $6.55, or higher at $7.98, while $3.78 and $2.40 are crucial support zones.
