Weekly setup
Constructive, but selective
The weekly trend is active. Price is 33.3% above the Trend Line and sits at 84.8% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 2.7%, after a 13.9% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks strongly versus its universe; growth is moderate; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. The latest news-sentiment score is 56/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal.
