Despite Donald Trump’s repeated branding of The New York Times as the “failing New York Times,” the stock suggests otherwise. NYT shares have been strengthening, with gains of 16.95% year-to-date and solid outperformance versus the S&P 500 across multiple time frames. The stock recently moved through prior resistance on strong volume and has re-entered a favored zone in the SIA MidCap 400 Index. In the end, charts don’t care about tweets — and right now, they show a company that’s gaining ground, not losing it.
