Where ORC stands vs its 150-day and 200-day moving averages
As of the September 3, 2026 close, ORC finished 0.76% below its 150-day moving average ($6.57) and 0.61% below its 200-day moving average ($6.56). 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 ORC overbought or oversold?
At the September 3, 2026 close, ORC's RSI(14) was 49.0, 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, ORC has $1.19B in cash with $11.09B in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. ROE of 20.8% points to strong capital efficiency, indicating how much profit the company produces per dollar of shareholder equity. ROA of 2.4% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has grown from -$241.0M (2022) to $179.5M (2025), reflecting a 174% increase over the period.
A beta of 1.55 means ORC is more volatile than average. Investors should be prepared for wider price swings relative to broader indices. The debt-to-cash ratio suggests meaningful leverage on the balance sheet, a factor worth monitoring if credit conditions tighten. No single metric tells the full story. Reviewing ORC's risk profile alongside its fundamentals and technical indicators provides a more complete picture.
