The stock price of iRhythm Technologies (NASDAQ:IRTC), a healthcare company that provides ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) and cardiac monitoring products, has seen a rise of 27% over the last one month (twenty-one trading days). This can be attributed to the company’s announcement of new CEO – Quentin Blackford – who was earlier the COO of Dexcom. Markets welcomed this change in hopes that the company may have better growth prospects under Quentin’s leadership, given his track record with Dexcom. Despite the recent rise, IRTC stock is down nearly 75% year-to-date, mostly due to setbacks the company has faced for Medicare reimbursement rates for some of its offerings. 

But now that IRTC stock has seen a 27% rise over the last month or so, will it continue its upward trajectory, or is a fall imminent? Going by historical performance, there is a high chance of continued gains in IRTC stock over the next month. Out of 73 instances in the last five years that IRTC stock saw a twenty-one day rise of 27% or more, 51 of them resulted in IRTC stock rising over the subsequent one-month period (twenty-one trading days). This historical pattern reflects 51 out of 84, or about a 70% chance of a rise in IRTC stock over the coming month, implying that the stock may continue to rise in the near term.
