Dana (DAN) finds support at its 50-day before turning higher

Auto parts manufacturer Dana (NYSE: DAN) pulled back over the last few weeks, but it looks as though the 50-day moving average halted the pullback last Thursday and now the stock looks to be turning higher again.

The stock jumped sharply from the December low, gaining over 65% in just two months. The stock peaked at $20.83 on February 25 and then pulled back to a low of $17.86 last week. The 50-day moving average was just below that level and still climbing.

The daily stochastic readings for Dana dropped sharply during the two-week pullback, moving from overbought territory to oversold territory. Now the indicators have turned higher and have made a bullish crossover.

The Tickeron AI Trend Prediction tool generated a bullish signal on March 15 and that signal called for a gain of at least 2% for the coming week. The signal showed a confidence level of 55% and the previous predictions on Dana have been accurate 75% of the time.

Personally, I can see the stock bounce back up above the $20.80 level and that would be good for a gain of almost 12%. That probably won’t happen in the next week, but perhaps within the next month.

Dana’s fundamentals are pretty good with annual growth in earnings averaging 26% over the last three years while sales have increased at a rate of 14% per year. The company also shows a return on equity of 36.9% and a profit margin of 6.9%.

Industry description

OEM or Original Equipment Manufacturer of auto parts refers to the original producer of a vehicles components, and so OEM car parts are usually identical to the parts used in producing the vehicle in the first place. OEM parts tend to fit the specifications of a particular model, and their compatibility is often guaranteed by the automaker itself. OEM parts could be more expensive to buy (compared to other vendors’ products) when a consumer goes for replacement. However, increased competition from aftermarket parts/third-party vendors could, in some cases, keep EOM prices in check. The industry might progress further in adopting newer technologies like 3D printing to boost supply chain performance and quality. Aptiv PLC, Magna International Inc. and BorgWarner Inc. are major OEMs for autos.
