JHX — James Hardie Industries plc

Last scan (Sept. 20, 2026): price $25.82, RSI 32.20, relative volume 8.56x, MACD ⚪ No, score 71.56.

It's in a bullish underlying trend (above its 200-day average), and an RSI of 32.2 suggests it isn't overbought yet — there's room before the momentum runs out. Neither the MACD nor a range breakout gives a technical entry signal right now. Today's volume is 8.56x average — well above normal activity, a sign of real interest. The analysts' average target price implies +36.5% upside — one of the score's strongest signals. Today it holds rank #18 in the Medium group on Smart Scanner's upside + relative volume ranking.
