Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is not active. Price is 4.0% above the Trend Line and sits at 66.6% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 10.6%, after a 14.6% 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 mixed with 29/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 60/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 13d.
