• The 6-day RSI rebounded sharply from oversold territory to 39.1, indicating a potential reversal from the recent downtrend.

• However, MACD remains in negative territory (-24.3), signaling that the bullish momentum is not yet fully confirmed.

• Immediate Pivot: $680.90 (Yesterday's close, now acting as support).

• Strong Resistance: $760.51 (Near-term ceiling; a break above targets the 52-week high).

Forward P/E of 30.85 is significantly above its historical average of 18.76 and +1 standard deviation (24.97), indicating a premium valuation. TTM P/E stands at 37.47.
