Analyst Summary
With price beneath the 20-day moving average (4,401), the burden of proof shifts to the bulls. Rallies into the SMA are selling opportunities until reclaimed. At 45, the momentum oscillator reinforces the bearish lean. Sellers have the edge in the near-term. The moving-average convergence divergence reading confirms downside pressure with a negative and deepening histogram. At 8.5x normal volume, the flow data confirms institutional participation. This is a high-conviction move.
