Weekly setup
Constructive, but selective
The weekly trend is active. Price is 10.3% above the Trend Line and sits at 71.1% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned -1.6%, after a 2.0% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks weakly versus its universe; growth ranks strongly; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. The latest news-sentiment score is 62/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal.

- Trend Line remains the key weekly regime level.
- Activity pressure is the gauge to monitor for confirmation or fade.

02 · Volume and demand
Is real participation confirming the move?
Latest weekly volume is 0.9x the 13-week average. Participation is below its recent norm, so price strength is not receiving full volume confirmation.
