As of the August 26, 2026 close, MDU finished 4.58% below its 150-day moving average ($20.94) and 3.24% below its 200-day moving average ($20.65). 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 MDU overbought or oversold?
At the August 26, 2026 close, MDU's RSI(14) was 49.2, in neutral territory (between 30 and 70). The MACD histogram was negative, so short-term momentum leaned bearish at that close. These readings are historical, refresh daily after market close, and are not investment advice.
On the balance sheet, MDU has $46.3M in cash with $2.58B in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. The company is burning cash, with free cash flow at -$478.3M. This typically occurs when a company is investing aggressively in growth, but sustained cash burn can strain the balance sheet. ROE of 6.9% points to modest capital efficiency, indicating how much profit the company produces per dollar of shareholder equity. ROA of 2.6% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has been uneven over recent years, ranging from $3.45B to $1.88B.
MDU's low beta indicates it tends to be less volatile than the broader market, which may suit investors seeking more stable price behavior. Debt significantly exceeds cash reserves, which means the company's financial flexibility could be constrained during economic downturns. Negative free cash flow means the company is currently spending more than it generates, which may require future fundraising or debt if the trend continues. No single metric tells the full story.
