ICF International Inc. (ICFI) is not a strong buy at the moment for a beginner investor with a long-term horizon and $50,000-$100,000 available for investment. The stock is currently facing cyclical challenges, as reflected in its declining financial performance and bearish technical indicators. While analysts have upgraded the stock and see potential for recovery, the lack of positive trading signals, weak financials, and absence of recent catalysts suggest holding off on buying for now.
The technical indicators for ICFI are bearish. The MACD is below 0 and negatively contracting, the RSI is neutral at 35.543, and moving averages indicate a bearish trend (SMA_200 > SMA_20 > SMA_5). The stock is trading below key pivot levels, with support at 76.395 and resistance at 88.673.
Analysts have upgraded the stock to 'Buy' with a price target of $115, citing the company's resilient franchise and potential for strong demand as governments and businesses face evolving challenges.
The company's financial performance in Q3 2025 showed significant declines in revenue (-9.98% YoY), net income (-27.27% YoY), and EPS (-26.01% YoY). There are no recent news catalysts or significant trading trends from hedge funds, insiders, or Congress. Technical indicators and options data suggest weak sentiment.
