Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is active. Price is 9.2% above the Trend Line and sits at 50.7% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned -0.8%, after a -3.3% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality is middle-of-the-pack; growth is moderate; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. Options positioning is volatility with 51/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 58/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 2d.

Latest weekly volume is 0.8x the 13-week average. Participation is below its recent norm, so price strength is not receiving full volume confirmation.
