Weekly setup

Constructive, but selective

The weekly trend is active. Price is 10.0% above the Trend Line and sits at 87.4% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 0.8%, after a 2.7% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks strongly versus its universe; growth ranks weakly; valuation is inexpensive relative to peers. The latest news-sentiment score is 53/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal.
