RBC Bearings Soars 3.19% on Strong Earnings Outlook

RBC Bearings (RBC) shares rose 0.02% today, marking the third consecutive day of gains, with a total increase of 2.22% over the past three days. The share price reached its highest level since March 2025, with an intraday gain of 1.42%.

The strategy of buying RBC shares after they reached a recent high and holding for 1 week yielded moderate returns over the past 5 years. The CAGR was 7.5%, slightly underperforming the broader market's 7.8% CAGR. This suggests the strategy captured some gains from RBC but missed the broader market's potential. Given RBC's stability, a more aggressive strategy, like holding for a longer period or adding diversification, might be worth exploring.
