Wait — supporting gate not met yet. Price is at or below entry $28.47 but weak momentum still blocks BUY_NOW. Key risks: Earnings expected to decline ~56% (cyclical peak); Negative momentum. Chart setup: No recognized chart pattern (not a breakout, bounce, continuation, recovery, falling knife, or range) — technicals mixed. Growth is cheap relative to earnings, but the chart hasn't confirmed yet (PEG 0.40, quality 7.9/10, growth 10.0/10). Score 6.6/10, moderate confidence.
