Weekly setup

Constructive, but selective

The weekly trend is active. Price is 40.0% above the Trend Line and sits at 73.9% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 8.9%, after a 17.3% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks weakly versus its universe; growth ranks weakly; valuation is expensive relative to peers. The latest news-sentiment score is 56/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal.
