After Golden Cross, Element Solutions (ESI)'s Technical Outlook is Bright

After reaching an important support level, Element Solutions Inc. (ESI) could be a good stock pick from a technical perspective. ESI recently experienced a "golden cross" event, which saw its 50-day simple moving average breaking out above its 200-day simple moving average.Considered an important signifier for a bullish breakout, a golden cross is a technical chart pattern that's formed when a stock's short-term moving average breaks above a longer-term moving average; the most common crossover involves the 50-day and the 200-day, since bigger time periods tend to form stronger breakouts.A successful golden cross event has three stages. It first begins when a stock's price on the decline bottoms out. Then, its shorter moving average crosses above its longer moving average, triggering a positive trend reversal. The third and final phase occurs when the stock maintains its upward momentum.A golden cross contrasts with a death cross, another widely-followed chart pattern that suggests bearish momentum could be on the horizon.Over the past four weeks, ESI has gained 9.8%. The company currently sits at a #2 (Buy) on the Zacks Rank, also indicating that the stock could be poised for a breakout.The bullish case solidifies once investors consider ESI's positive earnings outlook. For the current quarter, no earnings estimate has been cut compared to 3 revisions higher in the past 60 days. The Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased too.With a winning combination of earnings estimate revisions and hitting a key technical level, investors should keep their eye on ESI for more gains in the near future.Zacks Names #1 Semiconductor StockThis under-the-radar company specializes in semiconductor products that titans like NVIDIA don't build.
