Weekly setup

Mixed setup

The weekly trend is not active. Price is 3.7% above the Trend Line and sits at 89.6% of its 52-week range. The latest completed week returned 4.2%, after a 7.1% four-week move. The latest factor snapshot indicates quality is middle-of-the-pack; growth is moderate; valuation is neither clearly cheap nor expensive. The latest news-sentiment score is 52/100. Near-term considerations: volume confirmation is below normal.

What is working
  • Price is above the Trend Line, keeping the weekly tape constructive.
  • Price is above Fair Value, showing premium demand versus the model.
What could go wrong
  • The trend backdrop is inactive, so price action has not confirmed a constructive regime.

  • Next-week expectancy is negative at 34.25% based on similar historical setup states.
What to watch next
  • Trend Line remains the key weekly regime level.
