Catalysts

  • Oversold bounce has occurred. RSI recovering from ~25 to ~46 indicates the panic selling in mid-May has been absorbed.
  • MACD is improving decisively. The MACD line has risen from -8.6 to -3.4 over three weeks — a strong bearish-to-neutral momentum shift.
  • Key price zone: $270–273 has held twice. The stock bounced from this zone in mid-May and again in early June, suggesting a potential support level.

Risks

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