TransAtlantic Petroleum Ltd. (TAT) Hits New 52-week Low During March 01 Session

TransAtlantic Petroleum Ltd. (TAT) established a new 52-week low yesterday, and could be a company to watch at the open. After opening at $0.65, TransAtlantic Petroleum Ltd. dropped to $0.52 for a new 52-week low. By the closing bell, the company's stock was at $0.59 a share for a loss of 4.45%.

Falling to a new 52-week low is never fun for company's shareholder, but, depending on who you ask, it can be either a buy or a sell signal. Someone bearish on the stock might see it reaching its lowest price in a year as a sign of growing downward momentum and make sure they sell their shares. Bulls, though, are more likely to see a new 52-week low as the stock hitting its low point and anticipate a bounce in the share price.

However one plays it, it's often a critical moment for any stock and should be noted by investors.

TransAtlantic Petroleum Ltd. saw 137,102 shares of its stock trade hands, that's out of 41.02 million shares outstand. The stock has an average daily volume of 77,578 shares.
