Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is active. Price is 1.4% above the Trend Line and sits at 62.8% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned -2.5%, after a -2.8% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks strongly versus its universe; growth ranks strongly; valuation is expensive relative to peers. The latest news-sentiment score is 50/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal.
