Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is active. Price is 37.2% above the Trend Line and sits at 87.7% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 2.2%, after a -3.2% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality is middle-of-the-pack; growth is moderate; valuation is inexpensive relative to peers. Options positioning is bearish with 41/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 55/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 5d.

Latest weekly volume is 0.6x the 13-week average. Participation is below its recent norm, so price strength is not receiving full volume confirmation.
