Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is active. Price is 45.0% above the Trend Line and sits at 73.1% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 4.4%, after a -7.9% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality ranks weakly versus its universe; growth is moderate; valuation is expensive relative to peers. Options positioning is volatility with 61/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 52/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 4d.
