Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is active. Price is 12.1% above the Trend Line and sits at 83.9% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned -1.9%, after a -4.9% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks strongly versus its universe; growth ranks weakly; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. The latest news-sentiment score is 50/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal.
