In trading on Friday, shares of Health Net, Inc. (NYSE:HNT) entered into overbought territory, changing hands as high as $33.35 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 Health Net, Inc., the RSI reading has hit 72.7 — by comparison, the RSI reading for the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is presently 62.4.

Investors could look at HNT's 72.7 reading as a sign that the recent heavy buying is overdue to take a breather, which could bring a pullback in the stock. The chart below shows the one year performance of HNT shares:

According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, HNT makes up 2.25% of the Rydex S&P MidCap 400 Pure Value ETF (AMEX:RFV) which is trading up by about 0.7% on the day Friday.
