Catalysts

  • Long-term trend is decisively bullish — price is well above both the 50-day and 200-day SMAs, and the golden cross structure is intact.
  • Short-term momentum has clearly weakened — RSI collapsed from 85+ to 55, and MACD has fallen sharply from its May peak.
  • The stock is in a consolidation phase after a ~5% correction from the May 13 high, settling near $380 — a zone that may act as support or a launching pad for the next leg.

Risks

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