In trading on Friday, shares of Zhongpin Inc (HOGS) entered into overbought territory, changing hands as high as $10.35 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 Zhongpin Inc, the RSI reading has hit 70.1 — by comparison, the RSI reading for the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is presently 62.4.
