Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is not active. Price is 2.5% above the Trend Line and sits at 59.9% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 2.7%, after a 4.1% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality is middle-of-the-pack; growth ranks strongly; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. The latest news-sentiment score is 45/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal.

  • Activity pressure is positive on the latest completed week.
What could go wrong
