Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is active. Price is 11.0% above the Trend Line and sits at 76.6% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 0.4%, after a -2.7% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality is middle-of-the-pack; growth is moderate; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. Options positioning is bullish with 40/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 52/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 17d.
