In trading on Thursday, shares of Pennantpark Investment Corporation (NASDAQ:PNNT) entered into overbought territory, changing hands as high as $11.02 per share. We define overbought territory using the Relative Strength Index, or RSI, which is a technical analysis indicator used to measure momentum on a scale of zero to 100. A stock is considered to be overbought if the RSI reading rises above 70.

In the case of Pennantpark Investment Corporation, the RSI reading has hit 70.1 — by comparison, the universe of dividend stocks covered by Dividend Channel currently has an average RSI of 61.2.

A bearish investor could look at PNNT's 70.1 reading as a sign that the recent heavy buying is in the process of exhausting itself, and shares are due for a pullback. The chart below shows the one year performance of PNNT shares:
