English term or phrase: 52W high

In the wake of the turbulence on the financial markets, the share prices of many blue chips from the commodity sector have now also come under pressure for the first time. Our list shows the companies of the Bloomberg World Mining Index, ranked by market capitalization in USD and the gap to their 52W high.
----------------------------------------
In our list as at the end of January, the large mining companies are already trading roughly 20-30% below their 52W highs! XXX Corp. of China and YYY Ltd. from India have even lost 49.8% and 38%, respectively. We interpret this as a warning sign that the decoupling theory could no longer be valid.

Due occorrenze nel testo, che cosa significa l'espressione? Grazie

52w high massimo/massimi (livelli più alti toccati/raggiunti/segnati/registrati) delle ultime 52 settimane

Explanation:
Ciao Giuli,

Che io sappia, per rendere in italiano il concetto di cui chiedi lumi ("52w high") si ricorre abitualmente ad espressioni del tipo "massimo/massimi delle ultime 52 settimane" oppure "massimi/livelli più alti raggiunti/toccati/registrati/segnati, ecc. nelle ultime 52 settimane" - questo in quanto la traduzione "standard" di "high" in termini borsistici è "massimo" (così come quella di "low" è "minimo").

L'espressione indicata dalla collega ("picco delle ultime 52 settimane"), ancorché concettualmente corretta, non sembra molto utilizzata (ha un solo riscontro su Google a fronte delle centinaia di occorrenze per "massimo/massimi" e "ultime 52 settimane" in varie combinazioni tra loro).
