Daily (August 4, 2026)

Trend
Bullish. Price at 139.20 is above SMA20 (135.91), SMA50 (132.56), and SMA200 (130.55), with the moving averages arranged in a bullish stack. Price has recovered from the recent swing low near 108.14 and is trading near the top of its 60-day range.
Momentum
Bullish. RSI14 at 59.28 is above the 50 midline, showing positive momentum without overbought conditions. MACD line at 2.43 is above the signal line at 2.29, and the histogram at 0.14 has turned positive, confirming renewed upside pressure.
Volatility
Moderate. ATR14 at 4.00 (2.87% of price) indicates average daily movement of about 3%. Bollinger Bands (129.07 to 142.74) are moderately wide with price near the upper band, reflecting the recent uptrend.
Volume
Below average. Latest volume of 1,266,602 is 59.2% of the 20-period average (2,141,135), indicating lighter participation on the latest session.

Assessment

The daily timeframe shows a solid bullish bias. Price is above all key SMAs with a bullish alignment, RSI is constructive, and the MACD histogram has turned positive. A move above 142.42 (20-day and 60-day high) would extend the uptrend, while a loss of the 20-day low at 125.00 would signal near-term weakness.

Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)

Trend
Mixed but constructive. Price at 138.37 is above SMA20 (123.98), SMA50 (130.00), and SMA200 (129.20). The SMA200 is flat to slightly upward, and price has recovered from the recent swing low near 108.14, though the SMA20 remains below the SMA50 after the earlier correction.
Momentum
Bullish. RSI14 at 58.96 is above neutral and trending up. MACD line at 2.88 is above the signal line at 0.75 with a positive histogram at 2.13, indicating expanding bullish momentum on the weekly timeframe.
Volatility
Moderate to elevated. ATR14 at 9.26 (6.70% of price) reflects wider weekly ranges, consistent with the recovery from the recent lows.
Volume
Near average. Weekly volume of 9,648,400 is 89.2% of the 20-week average (10,821,165), indicating consistent participation.

Assessment

The weekly timeframe is constructive but not yet in a full bullish alignment. Price above all key SMAs plus a positive MACD setup supports upside momentum. The 252-week return of -8.09% reflects a deep correction that has only partially been retraced, and price sits near the top of its recent 20-week range. A weekly close above 142.42 would confirm renewed strength toward the 159.31 52-week high.
