Bias

OVERWEIGHT

Catalysts

  • Long-term trend is still bullish — price > 200-day SMA, which continues to rise gradually (from ~215 in late 2025 to ~234 now).
  • Medium-term momentum has stalled — the 50-day SMA is declining, price is below it, and RSI has flatlined at neutral rather than pressing into bullish territory.
  • Volatility squeeze underway — Bollinger bandwidth has contracted ~44% in one month, often preceding a significant directional expansion.

Risks

  • Event-driven repricing risk if expectations diverge from incoming evidence.
