On the daily chart, price at 138.78 has recovered just above SMA20 (138.11) but remains below SMA50 (140.64) and SMA200 (147.44). RSI14 at 47.89 has climbed back to neutral after oversold readings in July, and the MACD histogram has turned positive at 0.38 with the line at -0.34 above the signal at -0.72, signaling early momentum improvement, though the daily move came on below-average volume. The weekly chart stays mixed to bearish: price at 139.56 is below SMA20 (146.66), SMA50 (146.57), and SMA200 (151.35), with MACD still negative (line -3.00 below signal -1.57). The stock sits near the lower end of its 52-week range at a 15.46% daily position.

Daily (August 5, 2026)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 138.78 is just above SMA20 (138.11) but below SMA50 (140.64) and SMA200 (147.44). The moving averages remain stacked in bearish order (SMA20 below SMA50 below SMA200), keeping the longer-term structure bearish, while the recent recovery above SMA20 reflects a short-term attempt to stabilize after the July decline.
- Momentum
- Improving. RSI14 at 47.89 has recovered from oversold readings to the neutral midline. MACD remains below zero with the line at -0.34, but it has turned up above the signal at -0.72 and the histogram is positive at 0.38, signaling early stabilization in downward momentum.
- Volatility
- Moderate. ATR14 at 3.19 (2.30% of price) reflects normal daily swings. Bollinger Bands (133.27 to 142.96) show price near the middle band after recovering from the lower band.
- Volume
- Below average. Latest volume of 6,252,600 is 72.8% of the 20-period average (8,593,035), indicating lighter participation during the stabilization.
Assessment
The daily chart shows a short-term stabilization attempt within a longer downtrend. Price has reclaimed SMA20 (138.11) and RSI has recovered to 47.89, with the MACD histogram turning positive. However, the stock remains below SMA50 (140.64) and SMA200 (147.44), sits near the lower end of its 52-week range, and the recovery came on below-average volume. A sustained move above SMA50 (140.64) and the 20-day high at 145.43 would strengthen the case for a near-term recovery, while a break below 133.73 (20- and 60-day low) would put the 52-week low at 133.40 back in play.
Weekly (July 27, 2026 week)
- Trend
- Mixed. Price at 139.56 is below SMA20 (146.66), SMA50 (146.57), and SMA200 (151.35). The 20- and 50-week averages have converged near 146.6, while the 200-week average remains well above price, keeping the longer-term structure bearish.
- Momentum
- Bearish. RSI14 at 42.60 is below the 50 midline. MACD remains negative with the line at -3.00 below the signal at -1.57 and a negative histogram at -1.43, indicating ongoing downward momentum on the weekly scale.
- Volatility
- Elevated. ATR14 at 7.12 (5.10% of price) reflects wide weekly ranges. Bollinger Bands (133.43 to 159.88) show price near the lower band.
- Volume
- Above average. Weekly volume of 44,230,000 is 118.0% of the 20-week average (37,478,210), indicating participation above normal during the recent decline.
Assessment
The weekly chart stays mixed to bearish. Price is below all three moving averages, near the lower Bollinger Band and the lower end of its 52-week range at a 17.70% weekly position. MACD is still negative and RSI at 42.60 shows no sign of momentum reversal. The first sign of stabilization would be a weekly close back above SMA20 and SMA50 near 146.6, while the near-term support zone is 133.73 (20-week low) with the longer-term floor at 122.74 (60-week low).
