Relative Strength Index (RSI)
- The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It is typically used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in financial markets.
- The RSI is calculated using the following formula:
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
Where RS is the ratio of the average gains to the average losses over a specified period.
- The default time period used is 14 days.
- RSI values range between 0 and 100.
RSI values above 70 are considered overbought (indicating a potentially opportune time to sell)
RSI values below 30 are considered oversold (indicating a potentially opportune time to buy)
RSI is not a perfect indicator and should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools, this is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional financial advice.
About
AutoNation (AN) Business Model and Operations Summary
AutoNation is the second-largest automotive dealer in the United States, with 2024 revenue of about $27 billion and over 240 dealerships, plus 52 collision centers. The firm also has 26 AutoNation USA used-vehicle stores, a captive lender, four auction sites, and three parts distributors across 20 states primarily in Sunbelt metropolitan areas. New-vehicle sales account for nearly half of revenue; the company also sells used vehicles, parts, and repair services as well as auto financing. The company (formerly Republic Industries) divested its waste management unit (Republic Services) in 1999 and its car rental businesses (ANC Rental) in 2000. Wayne Huizenga founded the company in the 1990s to bring the rollup acquisition strategy to auto retailing, which has proved to be a smart move.
