Analyst Summary
With price beneath the 20-day moving average (82.51), the burden of proof shifts to the bulls. Rallies into the SMA are selling opportunities until reclaimed. Momentum at 39 reflects a tape under pressure. Bulls need to push the oscillator back above 50 to shift the narrative. The MACD reading adds conviction to the long thesis β positive and expanding histogram with a bullish signal-line cross. Volume registers below average β the move lacks broad participation and is susceptible to reversal.
