Position among covered Financials companies that report each metric (minimum 5 peers). A relative position within our covered catalog — not a valuation, quality, or investment judgment. A higher percentile is simply a higher value (for P/E, more expensive on earnings — never "better"). Informational only.
Dividend coverage (FY2025)
Covered by reported results. In FY2025, PKBK's dividend was covered by reported results (earnings payout 22%, free-cash-flow payout 22%). This describes past coverage, not a forecast.
- Earnings payout22% dividends / net income
- Free-cash-flow payout22% dividends / (operating cash flow − capex)
Coverage derived from reported SEC EDGAR XBRL figures for FY2025 (dividends paid vs. net income and free cash flow, same fiscal year). This describes PAST coverage for one fiscal year — it does not predict whether a dividend will be maintained, raised, or cut, and a one-year payout ratio can be distorted by non-recurring items. Informational only — not financial advice.
How PARKE BANCORP INC looks technically
PARKE BANCORP INC (PKBK) is trading 18.9% above its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a longer-term uptrend. Its 50-day average crossed above its 200-day average about 271 trading days ago — a "golden cross", a bullish long-term signal. A strong uptrend is in place — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 28, with buyers in control. Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 52, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bearish about 3 trading days ago (its momentum flipped negative). It made a new 20-day high about 7 trading days ago. It is 4.3% below its all-time high. Trading volume is running unusually high — about 5.0× its 30-day average, a sign of heightened interest.
Trend

| Distance from the 200-day | it is trading 18.9% above its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a longer-term uptrend | +18.9% |
|---|---|---|
| 50-day moving average | its average price over the last 50 trading days — a short-term trend line — is $33.31 | $33.31 |
| 200-day moving average | its average price over the last 200 trading days — the long-term trend line — is $28.72 | $28.72 |
| Swing structure | its recent peaks and dips disagree — one of them is rising while the other is not, so there is no clean up or down pattern in the swings | mixed — one of the two is not confirming |
| Last swing turn | its last significant turn was a swing high 7 calendar days ago — the swings before that are what the structure reading is measured on | 7 sessions |
| Since the 50/200 cross | its 50-day average crossed above its 200-day average about 271 trading days ago — a "golden cross", a bullish long-term signal | 271 sessions |
| Trend strength (14-day ADX) | a strong uptrend is in place — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 28, with buyers in control | 28.1 |
Momentum

| 14-day RSI | momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 52, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30) | 52.0 |
|---|---|---|
| Position in its 14-day range | it is trading in the lower half of its 14-day range ($33.51 to $35.70) — its "stochastic" reading is 29 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. | 29.2 |
| Since the MACD crossed zero | MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bearish about 3 trading days ago (its momentum flipped negative) | 3 sessions |
Range
12
| 52-week high | its highest closing price over the past year (about 252 trading days) was $35.70 | $35.70 |
|---|---|---|
| From the 52-week high | it is 4.3% below its 52-week high (its highest price of the past year) | -4.3% |
| Above the 52-week low | it is 73.3% above its 52-week low (its lowest price of the past year) | +73.3% |
| Below the 52-week high | it is 4.3% below its highest point of the past year | 4.3% |
| Since a 20-day breakout | it made a new 20-day high about 7 trading days ago | 7 sessions |
| Since a 55-day breakout | it made a new 55-day high about 7 trading days ago | 7 sessions |
| All-time high | its highest closing price on record is $35.70 (set on 2026-08-14) | $35.70 |
| Given back of the 52-week move | over the past year its closes ranged ($19.87 to $35.13), and it has given back only a small part of its rise from last year’s low — 6% of it. Chart-watchers call 61.8%-65% given back the "golden pocket" — for this company that is $25.21 to $25.70. It is watched widely enough that orders cluster there, which is the honest reason it matters; it is not a forecast. | 6.4% |
| From the all-time high | it is 4.3% below its all-time high | -4.3% |
| Nearest price level | it is sitting right on a resistance level at $34.23 — a price it turned at twice since 2026-07-01, most recently on 2026-07-16. Since 2024-08-21 it has 19 such levels below the current price and 1 above. Levels like these describe where the price has reversed or paused before; they are not a forecast of where it will go. | +0.3% |
| All-time low | its lowest closing price on record is $2.52 (set on 2009-03-10) | $2.52 |
| Above the all-time low | it is 1254.7% above its all-time low | +1,255% |
Volatility
5
| Band width vs its own 6 months | day-to-day price swings are narrower than usual versus its own recent 6-month history (tighter than about 88% of it) | 12th percentile |
|---|---|---|
| Typical daily range | in a typical session it travels about $0.7642 between its high and its low — about 2.2% 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 | $0.7642 |
| Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ) | most of its recent trading has stayed between about $33.41 and $35.24 — 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 | $33.41 – $34.33 – $35.24 |
| Typical daily range (% of price) | its price moves about 2.2% in a typical session — calmer than most 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 | 2.2% |
| Stretch from the 200-day average | it is trading 7.1 daily ranges above its 200-day average price (18.9% above it in plain percentage terms) — a way of asking how far it has stretched from its own average in units of how far it normally moves in a day, so a calm company and a jumpy one can be compared on the same scale | 7.1 daily ranges above its 200-day average |
Volume

| Volume vs its 30-day average | trading volume is running unusually high — about 5.0× its 30-day average, a sign of heightened interest | 5.00× |

Candlestick patterns
2
| Since a doji | 5 sessions ago it opened and closed at almost the same price after trading through a wider range — a "doji", the classic picture of buyers and sellers finishing the session level | 5 sessions ago |
|---|---|---|
| Since a bearish engulfing | 2 sessions ago it opened above the previous session's close and finished below that session's open — a "bearish engulfing" pair, where one down day more than undid the up day before it | 2 sessions ago |
Price gaps
2
| Gap at the open | it opened on 2026-08-21 0.4% above the previous session's close — an overnight gap, the part of the move that happened while the market was shut, and traded back through that level before the close | +0.4% |
|---|---|---|
| Open gap | it gapped 3.3% above the previous close 19 sessions ago and has not traded back through the level it left behind at 32.54 — an "unfilled gap", which describes a price range no trade has since crossed and is not a forecast that it will be crossed | +3.3% |

Signal agreement
2
| Bullish technical signals | 5 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bullish state: a strong uptrend, with buyers in control, a "golden cross" — its 50-day average is above its 200-day, trading above its 200-day average, outperforming the market over 6 months, trading above the Ichimoku cloud — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 5 of 9 |
|---|---|---|
| Bearish technical signals | 1 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it is currently in a bearish state: MACD momentum is negative — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 1 of 9 |
Trend (Ichimoku cloud)
1
| Vs the Ichimoku cloud | trading 4.5% above the Ichimoku cloud — a band drawn from where its own highs and lows sat up to 2026-07-15 and projected forward over today's price, the side traders read as an established uptrend, with the band below acting as the level that would have to give way. The band itself is moderate, spanning 2.3% of the share price. | +4.5% |
|---|
Volume-weighted price
1
| Vs this year’s average price paid | the price is 15% above the average price paid so far this year, so the typical buyer over that stretch is showing a gain. That average is $29.77 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 159 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | +14.7% |
|---|

Wave structure
No Elliott-wave labelling currently fits its swings: the recent highs and lows do not satisfy the three rules a five-wave count has to obey, so there is no count to show rather than a count we are unsure about.

Key risks (from latest filing)
["Geographic concentration: substantially all loans are secured by real estate in Southern New Jersey and Philadelphia area; adverse local economic changes could disproportionately impact earnings and capital.","Scale disadvantage: significantly smaller capital base and marketing resources than competing institutions; legal lending limit to single borrowers is considerably lower than larger competitors.","Regulatory uncertainty: provides banking services to state-licensed cannabis businesses, which operate in legal gray area as cannabis remains illegal under federal law."]

Only 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. Sales may be planned and non-discretionary (e.g. a Rule 10b5-1 plan) and are not necessarily bearish; open-market buying is not a recommendation to buy. Informational only — not financial advice.
Institutional ownership (13F)
5 institutional 13F filers reported holding PKBK as of 2026-03-31 (quarter-end position, filed within 45 days).
- Distinct 13F filers 5
- Reported shares held 1,016,878
- Reported value $28,879,343
reported quarterly holdings change (2025-12-31 → 2026-03-31): 0 new, 3 increased, 2 decreased, 0 exited. Change counts cover only managers that filed 13F reports in BOTH quarters, derived between two quarter-end snapshots — not same-day trades; a single manager is never said to have "bought" or "sold".
Institutional holdings are quarter-end long positions reported on SEC Form 13F-HR, filed up to 45 days after the quarter ends — they are delayed, are not real-time trades, exclude short positions and most non-US securities, and are not investment advice. Any increase/decrease is a reported change between two quarterly snapshots, not a same-day purchase or sale. These are quarter-end snapshots from the 13F filings on SEC EDGAR, filed within 45 days — not real-time, and any change is a difference between two quarterly reports, not a same-day trade. Informational only — not financial advice.
Short interest (FINRA)
PKBK had 174,013 shares of reported short interest as of the 2026-07-31 FINRA settlement date (delayed, bi-monthly; not real-time).
PKBK had 1.48% of its shares outstanding sold short as of the 2026-07-31 FINRA settlement date (percent of FLOAT would be higher — float is not disclosed in the source). FINRA reported 3.25 days to cover at the same settlement.
- Reported short interest (shares) 174,013
- Short interest (% of shares outstanding) 1.48%
- Prior settlement (shares) 157,951
- Reported change 10.17%
- Days to cover (reported) 3.25
Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-07-31 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.
