As of the August 18, 2026 close, EMF finished 9.69% above its 150-day moving average ($20.53) and 15.78% above its 200-day moving average ($19.45). This snapshot is end-of-day data shown with a five-trading-day delay on the free plan; Premium members see readings from the latest close.
Is EMF overbought or oversold?
At the August 18, 2026 close, EMF's RSI(14) was 74.9, in overbought territory (above 70). The MACD histogram was positive, so short-term momentum leaned bullish at that close. These readings are historical, refresh daily after market close, and are not investment advice.
On the balance sheet, EMF has $122 in cash with $10.0M in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. Return on equity stands at 50.0%, which is exceptionally high for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. ROA of 0.8% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has been uneven over recent years, ranging from $51.6M to $28.9M.
Templeton Emerging Markets Fund carries a heavier debt load relative to its cash position, which introduces financial risk that investors should weigh. No single metric tells the full story.
