Recently, BB's 50-day simple moving average broke out above its 200-day moving average; this is known as a "golden cross."A golden cross is a technical chart pattern that can signify a potential bullish breakout. It's formed from a crossover involving a security's short-term moving average breaking above a longer-term moving average, with the most common moving averages being the 50-day and the 200-day, since bigger time periods tend to form stronger breakouts.Golden crosses have three key stages that investors look out for. It starts with a downtrend in a stock's price that eventually bottoms out, followed by the stock's shorter moving average crossing over its longer moving average and triggering a trend reversal. The final stage is when a stock continues the upward climb to higher prices.A golden cross is the opposite of a death cross, another technical event that indicates bearish price movement may be on the horizon.BB could be on the verge of a breakout after moving 6.7% higher over the last four weeks.
