Itron Inc (ITRI) is not a strong buy at the moment for a beginner investor with a long-term strategy and $50,000-$100,000 to invest. The stock's technical indicators suggest a neutral to slightly bearish trend, and the company's recent financial performance shows declining revenue, net income, and EPS. While analysts maintain positive ratings with adjusted price targets, there are no significant positive catalysts or trading signals to warrant immediate action. Holding off for now is advisable.
The MACD is negative and expanding, indicating bearish momentum. RSI is neutral at 30.665, and moving averages are converging, suggesting no clear trend. The stock is trading near its S1 support level of 95.58, with resistance at 100.708. Overall, the technical indicators lean neutral to slightly bearish.

Analysts maintain positive ratings with price targets ranging from $125 to $138, suggesting long-term potential. Gross margin increased by 11.18% YoY in the latest quarter, indicating improved operational efficiency.
Revenue, net income, and EPS all declined YoY in the latest quarter, reflecting weaker financial performance. No recent news or significant insider/hedge fund activity to drive momentum. Technical indicators and options data do not signal strong buying interest.
