A big spike in selling this week — 2.2x the usual volume, and the price dropped. Sometimes this kind of heavy selling marks the end of a decline. The idea is that the last reluctant holders have finally sold, leaving fewer sellers left to push the price lower.

With a market cap of $2.3 billion, ANDE is a mid-cap stock. Free cash flow yield is currently negative, meaning the company is burning cash. Return on equity stands at 8.3%. The stock trades at 1.8x book value.
Over the past 29.2 years, a hypothetical investment of $100 in ANDE would have grown to $3640, compared to $1369 for the S&P 500. That represents an annualized return of 13.1% vs 9.4% for the index — confirming ANDE as a market-beating investment and the kind of quality company where buying during 200-week moving average touches has historically been rewarded.
Free cash flow has been declining at a -100% compound annual rate. A deteriorating cash flow trend warrants extra scrutiny — the stock may be cheap for a reason.
