Is this the next momentum stock to crumble?

Or will it keep running?

Technically this stock has spent really no time below the 100 day sma in over a year.

Fundamentally MNST seems expensive with a PEG value of 2.8037, above the Beverages (Nonalcoholic) industry median PEG of 1.62, although their PE is 36.0743, among the highest in the industry.

From a Growth rate perspective Although earnings at MNST grew over the last twelve months, they failed to keep pace with the growth in revenues. This may mean that the company is becoming less efficient at using its resources. Additionally, the average company in the Beverages (Nonalcoholic) industry was able to grow earnings at a faster rate than MNST.
