Century Aluminum Co (CENX) is currently trading at $35.62. There is a divergence between signals — underlying fundamentals rate "Buy" but technical indicators lean "Strong Sell". Notable factors include exceptional Return on Equity (43.0%), a bearish Death Cross on the long-term moving averages and bearish long-term moving average alignment. The stock looks compelling on valuation, with multiples below sector averages across P/E, P/B, and EV/EBITDA.
