How HMH HOLDING INC CLASS A looks technically
HMH HOLDING INC CLASS A (HMH): there is no clear trend right now — the price is choppy (ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 14, below the 25 that marks a real trend). Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 49, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bullish about 3 trading days ago (its momentum flipped positive). It made a new 20-day low about 6 trading days ago.
Trend
8
| Distance from the 200-day | not enough price history yet — needs 200 trading sessions | n/a |
|---|---|---|
| 50-day moving average | its average price over the last 50 trading days — a short-term trend line — is $19.52 | $19.52 |
| 200-day moving average | not enough price history yet — needs 200 trading sessions | n/a |
| Swing structure | each recent peak has been lower than the one before it and each dip deeper — the pattern chart-watchers call a downtrend, which describes where price has already been and not where it goes next | lower highs and lower lows |
| Last swing turn | its last significant turn was a swing low 7 calendar days ago — the swings before that are what the structure reading is measured on | 7 sessions |
| Wave structure | its recent swings can be read as a completed three-part downward correction — a pullback in the A-B-C shape Elliott-wave chartists use; the labelling fails if price closes below 16.865. It is the only labelling that fits, and it describes the swings already printed, not what comes next. | possible three-wave downward correction, complete |
| Since the 50/200 cross | not enough price history yet — needs 200 trading sessions | n/a |
| Trend strength (14-day ADX) | there is no clear trend right now — the price is choppy (ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 14, below the 25 that marks a real trend) | 13.7 |
Momentum

| 14-day RSI | momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 49, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30) | 48.7 |
|---|---|---|
| Position in its 14-day range | it is trading in the upper half of its 14-day range ($16.86 to $19.65) — its "stochastic" reading is 67 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been climbing within that range over the last few sessions. | 67.3 |

Volatility

| Band width vs its own 6 months | day-to-day price swings are about average versus its own recent 6-month history | 52nd percentile |
|---|---|---|
| Typical daily range | in a typical session it travels about $0.9632 between its high and its low — about 5.1% of its price. That is its "average true range" over the last 14 sessions, which also counts the distance from the previous close, so a day that opens well away from yesterday counts as the large move it was | $0.9632 |
| Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ) | most of its recent trading has stayed between about $17.31 and $20.28 — the "Bollinger bands", a range drawn two standard deviations either side of its 20-day average price, which widens when the stock gets more volatile and narrows when it settles | $17.31 – $18.80 – $20.28 |
| Typical daily range (% of price) | its price moves about 5.1% in a typical session — about typical for the companies we cover. This is the average gap between a session's high and low over the last 14 sessions, counting overnight moves, expressed against the current price so it can be compared with companies trading at any price | 5.1% |

Price gaps
2
| Gap at the open | it opened on 2026-10-08 1.1% above the previous session's close — an overnight gap, the part of the move that happened while the market was shut, and had not traded back through that level by the close | +1.1% |
|---|---|---|
| Gap filled | a 2.1% gap down opened on 2026-09-29 has been "filled" 3 sessions ago — price traded back through the level the gap left behind, and it took 4 sessions to close | 3 sessions ago |

Signal agreement

| Bullish technical signals | 1 of the 7 technical signals we can compute for it is currently in a bullish state: MACD momentum is positive — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 1 of 7 |
|---|---|---|
| Bearish technical signals | 2 of the 7 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bearish state: lagging the market over 6 months, trading below the Ichimoku cloud — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 2 of 7 |
Trend (Ichimoku cloud)
1
| Vs the Ichimoku cloud | trading 5.2% below the Ichimoku cloud — a band drawn from where its own highs and lows sat up to 2026-09-01 and projected forward over today's price, the side traders read as an established downtrend, with the band above acting as the level that would have to be cleared. The band itself is thin, spanning 1.0% of the share price, which is taken to mean a barrier that gives way easily. | -5.2% |
|---|
Volume-weighted price
2
| Vs this year’s average price paid | the price is 4% below the average price paid since 2026-04-01, so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $19.52 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 122 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -4.0% |
|---|---|---|
| Vs the average paid since it last reported | the price is 3% below the average price paid since it last reported on 2026-08-05 (its 10-Q), so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $19.36 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 46 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -3.2% |

View full insider trading history → View SEC Form 3/4/5 filingsOnly open-market purchases (SEC code P) and sales (code S) are counted here. Option exercises, vesting/awards, gifts, and shares withheld for taxes are excluded — they are compensation or mechanical, not open-market conviction.

Short interest (FINRA)
HMH had 846,645 shares of reported short interest as of the 2026-09-15 FINRA settlement date (delayed, bi-monthly; not real-time).
Short interest as a percent of shares outstanding is not shown for HMH because we do not hold a verified share count to divide it by. The reported figures above are unaffected.
- Reported short interest (shares) 846,645
- Prior settlement (shares) 912,523
- Reported change -7.22%
- Days to cover (reported) 5.92
Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-09-15 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
