Investment thesis

RB Global is an industrial auction and asset management services company with a perfect 4-for-4 earnings beat streak averaging 11.3% positive surprise and the strongest momentum score of 8.0 out of 10, but the stock has already reached its analyst price target with only 0.6% upside and a reward-to-risk ratio of 0.12 that makes new entry unattractive.

Sell if holding. Momentum 4.2/10 is below the 5.0 floor at $83.78 — engine's falling-knife protection flags exit rather than catching a breakdown. Specifics: Below 200-MA, MA slope -1.6%/30d (confirmed downtrend); Sector modifier (Industrials): -0.7. Chart setup: Death cross but MACD improving, RSI 49. Score 6.1/10, moderate confidence.

Passes 6/9 gates (favorable risk/reward ratio, clean insider activity, news events none recent, earnings proximity 52d clear, semi cycle peak clear, materials cycle peak clear). Fails on weak momentum and death cross (50MA < 200MA). Suitability: moderate.
