Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is active. Price is 13.1% above the Trend Line and sits at 60.2% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned -0.9%, after a -6.6% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks weakly versus its universe; growth is moderate; valuation is expensive relative to peers. Options positioning is volatility with 53/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 50/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 5d.
