Two consumer staples stocks, RLX Technology and Altria Group, have recently caught the attention of investors due to their strong price performance and high Relative Strength Index (RSI) values. As of September 2, 2025, both stocks are considered overbought, with RLX Technology's RSI value at 79.1 and Altria Group's RSI value at 70.8. This indicates a potential for a short-term pullback or correction.
