Where LXU stands vs its 150-day and 200-day moving averages
As of the October 15, 2026 close, LXU finished 17.35% below its 150-day moving average ($12.22) and 13.68% below its 200-day moving average ($11.70). 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 LXU overbought or oversold?
At the October 15, 2026 close, LXU's RSI(14) was 50.3, in neutral territory (between 30 and 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, LXU has $218.0M in cash with $489.6M in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. The company generates $89.8M in free cash flow annually, which funds everything from R&D to shareholder returns without needing external financing. Return on equity stands at 7.1%, which is modest for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. ROA of 3.5% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has pulled back from $901.7M (2022) to $615.2M (2025), a 32% decline worth watching.
The relatively low beta of 0.44 suggests LXU is a less volatile holding compared to the broader index. No single metric tells the full story. Reviewing LXU's risk profile alongside its fundamentals and technical indicators provides a more complete picture.
