Weekly setup
Mixed setup
The weekly trend is active. Price is -0.8% below the Trend Line and sits at 69.1% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned -0.4%, after a -3.7% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality is middle-of-the-pack; growth ranks weakly; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. Options positioning is bearish with 46/100 conviction, while the latest news-sentiment score is 52/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal; earnings are due in 69d.
