Weekly setup
Constructive, but selective
The weekly trend is active. Price is 10.0% above the Trend Line and sits at 60.0% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 9.3%, after a 3.4% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks strongly versus its universe; growth is moderate; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. The latest news-sentiment score is 57/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal.

- Activity pressure is weak, so confirmation is not yet broad enough.
- Trend Line remains the key weekly regime level.
- Activity pressure is the gauge to monitor for confirmation or fade.

Is real participation confirming the move?
Latest weekly volume is 0.7x the 13-week average. Participation is below its recent norm, so price strength is not receiving full volume confirmation.
