The read
written from the numbers on this page
The evidence is mixed3 supporting, 2 against, 2 worth knowing
Supporting
trading 4% above its 200-day average
up 5% over twelve months
revenue grew 57% year on year in the quarter ending 2026-06-30
Against
net margin has narrowed from 12.2% to 11.2% across four quarters
priced at 48× earnings against an industry median of 26× — 89% above its peers
Worth knowing
the 6 scans it matches come from only 2 families — one signal wearing several hats rather than several signals
the rise is short covering rather than fresh buying, which historically runs out when the shorts are done
PERSISTENT sits in Digital, Information technology — worth checking whether the whole group is moving together or whether this name is doing it alone.
What would change this read: a close below 5,438, its 200-day average.
Assembled automatically from the figures on this page — the scans matched, their measured record, the filed financials, the derivatives positioning and the peer comparison.

What the scans say today
6 of 47 matched on 2026-08-21
PERSISTENT matches 6 of the 47 scans today, across 2 different kinds of evidence. Note how few kinds of evidence that is: several scans in one family are one signal wearing several hats, not several signals.
PERSISTENT trades at 48× trailing earnings, below its median of 63× over this window — 24% less expensive than usual. The band runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile, so single-day spikes do not set the edges.
This window is short by the standards of valuation history — it begins where four quarters of filed earnings first exist. A stock can look cheap against two years and expensive against ten.
Analyst call filings were typically +0.14pt vs the market over the next 5 sessions (n=3,352) · Other filing filings were typically -0.08pt vs the market over the next 5 sessions (n=12,093)

Distance from the averages traders watch. Above all of them is a bull phase; below the 200-day is the line most investors use to say otherwise.

Short Covering
Price up, open interest down. Sellers are closing, not buyers arriving. Rallies built only on this tend not to last once the shorts are out.

How to read this
Open interest is contracts still open, so a rise means new positions and a fall means positions closing. Combined with price direction that gives the state on the left. The walls are the strikes carrying the most open interest near expiry — levels other people are watching, not levels the price is obliged to respect. A future below spot means sellers are paying to be short.
