The MACD histogram turned positive at 11.35, indicating a potential bullish crossover is forming, a key reversal signal from prior weakness.
๐ฏ Key Price Levels
-
Primary Support: $266.32 (Recent swing low, crucial for the uptrend).

๐ฐ Valuation Perspective
Trading at a Forward P/E of ~11.54, significantly below its historical average (~30.57) and the -1 Std. Dev. level (~22.48). This suggests the stock is deeply undervalued relative to its own history, potentially pricing in excessive pessimism.
๐ข Analyst Targets
Coverage from 30 analysts shows a Strong Buy sentiment: 9 Strong Buy, 16 Buy, 9 Hold, 1 Underperform. The average price target is $478.19, implying over 65% upside from current levels, highlighting a stark divergence between price and analyst conviction.
๐ฎ Weekly Outlook
Expect consolidation between $275 - $300 in the coming week as the RSI cools. A sustained break above $291 (pivot) could fuel a move toward $310-320. A fall below $266 support would invalidate the bullish setup and risk a retest of lower levels.
