Weekly setup

Constructive, but selective

The weekly trend is active. Price is 23.0% above the Trend Line and sits at 90.4% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 11.1%, after a 11.9% 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 bullish with 50/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 55/100. Near-term considerations: price is close to its 52-week high; volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 56d.
