Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is active. Price is -1.0% below the Trend Line and sits at 54.7% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned -3.5%, after a -9.3% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality is middle-of-the-pack; growth ranks strongly; valuation is expensive relative to peers. Options positioning is volatility with 53/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 54/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 2d.
