Chinese REIT Makes Bullish Breakout with Golden Cross Formation

KE Holdings surges 71.60%, driven by Golden Cross and strategic moves like share buybacks.

K
E Holdings Inc. – ADR BEKE is making waves in the market, with a year-to-date surge of 60.69% and a staggering 71.60% gain in just the past month alone. As China's largest online real estate transaction platform, KE Holdings is riding a robust bullish trend, but it's the recent Golden Cross that's got everyone talking.

    A Golden Cross occurs when a short-term moving average crosses above a long-term moving average, signaling potential continued upward momentum. For KE Holdings, this crossover has captured the attention of traders and investors alike. The stock price currently stands at $25.57, comfortably above its key moving averages: eight-day SMA ($21.90), 20-day SMA ($17.41), 50-day SMA ($15.58), and 200-day SMA ($15.04).

    These figures indicate that KE Holdings is not just on a bullish trend, but riding a powerful wave of buying pressure. However, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 84.75 suggests overbought conditions, implying possible corrections ahead.

    KE Holdings' recent share repurchases, including 435,000 shares on Sept. 20, demonstrate the company's confidence in its stock value and commitment to enhancing shareholder returns. With a buyback mandate in place until Oct. 20, KE Holdings is signaling that it believes in its growth trajectory.

    The company's financials from the second quarter of 2024 further bolster this bullish narrative, with total net revenues rising 19.9% year-over-year and a staggering 46.2% increase in net income. Notably, non-housing transaction services saw sharp growth, with home renovation and furnishing revenue climbing 53.9%, and home rental services skyrocketing 167.1%.

    With the recent Golden Cross signaling a potentially strong bullish trend, coupled with robust financial performance and strategic buybacks, KE Holdings' stock presents a compelling opportunity for investors. While the stock may currently be overbought, its solid market position and promising outlook suggest that this is one real estate player that's thriving.
