Analysis for Seagate Technology

Technical asset picture

Seagate Technology (STX) currently has a total score of 80 points, placing it in the very strong range. The score is made up of Performance (97), Stability (43) and Trend (95). The profile is clearly uneven: Performance stands out while Stability is more neutral.

Performance scores 97 points (very strong). Key strength: 1Y return at 403.5 %. Even the weakest return is still strong in absolute terms: 5Y return at 460.0 %. This points to a sharper upswing more recently.

Stability scores 43 points (neutral). Key strength: return/volatility ratio at 6.17. Weaker metric: volatility (365d, annualized) at 65.4 %. That implies very high day-to-day swings. Higher Stability points are better and typically reflect calmer swings and smaller drawdowns-but prices can still fall.

Trend scores 95 points (very strong). Key strength: Price is about 61.0 % above SMA200. Even the weakest metric remains solid in absolute terms: trend strength at 0.85. That often means the move is strong, but not perfectly steady.

Overall, the very strong total score is driven mainly by Performance and Trend; Stability is the biggest lever for improvement. On a metric level, 1Y return stands out, while volatility (365d, annualized) is the main weak spot.
