Aligos Therapeutics Inc (ALGS) is not a strong buy for a beginner, long-term investor with $50,000-$100,000 available for investment at this time. The stock is currently in a bearish technical trend, has weak financial performance, and lacks recent positive news or catalysts. While hedge funds are buying, and there is a positive analyst rating with a $20 price target, the lack of immediate positive momentum, poor recent earnings, and absence of Intellectia Proprietary Trading Signals make it prudent to hold rather than buy.
The technical indicators suggest a bearish trend. The MACD is negative and expanding downward, the RSI is at 37.344 (neutral but leaning towards oversold), and the moving averages indicate a bearish alignment (SMA_200 > SMA_20 > SMA_5). The stock is trading below key pivot levels, with support at 6.677 and resistance at 7.403. Overall, the technicals do not support a buy at this time.
