Technical picture
The 14-day RSI is 38. Momentum is soft: below the neutral 50 line, but not yet oversold.
MACD is below its signal line, so short-term momentum is pointing down.
The price is below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, the classic picture of a downtrend.
Volume is about normal (0.8x the 20-day average).
Trend structure and money flow
Market structure: bearish structure intact, no fresh break.
The most recent swing high is $160.09 and the swing low is $115.83; traders often treat these as resistance and support.
Price is sitting in a bearish order block, a zone where large sellers stepped in before, so upside may stall here.
Fundamentals
The PEG ratio is 6.30, which looks expensive relative to its growth.
The company reports a profit margin of 5.2% and revenue growth of +6.7%.
In its latest quarter it earned $2.87 per share, which beat the $2.61 analysts expected, with revenue +6.7% year over year.

Trade plan from the model
The model's short / bearish plan uses an entry near $128.14, a target of $123.22 (-3.8%) and a stop-loss at $135.59 (+5.8%).
That is a reward-to-risk ratio of about 0.7 to 1: the potential loss is bigger than the gain, a weak setup.
The plan has a time limit: reassess by Oct 24, 2026 whatever the price does.
