Invalidation

Bias
UNDERWEIGHT
Catalysts
- Long-term trend is still up — the 200-day SMA is rising and price remains ~10% above it. The golden cross (50 > 200 SMA) is intact.
- Short-term trend has clearly broken — price has fallen through the 50-day SMA, and both RSI (below 50) and MACD (negative) confirm weak near-term momentum.
- RSI exited oversold without conviction — it bounced from ~29 to ~49 but stalled, suggesting this is a relief bounce within a correction, not a fresh uptrend.
Risks
- Event-driven repricing risk if expectations diverge from incoming evidence.
