Freyr Battery had its Relative Strength (RS) Rating upgraded from 70 to 78 Thursday -- a welcome improvement. But still below the 80 or better score you look for.
As you try to find the best stocks to buy and watch, be sure to pay attention to relative price strength.
IBD's proprietary RS Rating measures market leadership by using a 1 (worst) to 99 (best) score. That indicates how a stock's price action over the last 52 weeks compares to other publicly traded companies.
Decades of market research shows that the market's biggest winners typically have an RS Rating of over 80 in the early stages of their moves. See if Freyr Battery can continue to rebound and clear that threshold.
