Catalysts

  • Bull market intact long-term — price remains above the rising 200-day SMA ($134.17), and the 12-month trajectory is still positive.
  • Near-term outlook is bearish — price is well below the 50-day SMA and both momentum indicators (RSI, MACD) are in a deterioration phase.
  • Risk of a 200-day SMA test is elevated — with the close at $136.72 and the 200-day at $134.17, a further decline of only ~2% would put the long-term trend line at risk.

Risks

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