As of the August 21, 2026 close, SW finished 13.18% above its 150-day moving average ($42.58) and 17.62% above its 200-day moving average ($40.97). 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 SW overbought or oversold?
At the August 21, 2026 close, SW's RSI(14) was 59.8, 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, SW has $677.0M in cash with $14.16B in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. The company generates $1.22B in free cash flow annually, which funds everything from R&D to shareholder returns without needing external financing. Return on equity stands at 2.7%, which is modest for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. ROA of 2.6% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has grown from $13.51B (2022) to $31.18B (2025), reflecting a 131% increase over the period.
Smurfit Westrock Plc 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. Reviewing SW's risk profile alongside its fundamentals and technical indicators provides a more complete picture.
