-3.8% latest week
Weekly setup

Constructive, but selective

The weekly trend is active. Price is 1.9% above the Trend Line and sits at 50.8% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned -3.8%, after a 9.1% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks strongly versus its universe; growth ranks strongly; valuation is inexpensive relative to peers. Options positioning is volatility with 58/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 51/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 2d.
