However, it is slightly above its 200-day SMA of $4.72, indicating a mixed technical outlook. The average true range (ATR) of 0.22 suggests low volatility. On the fundamental side, the company has a market capitalization of $59.35 billion, a trailing P/E of 9.65, and a forward P/E of 8.66, indicating undervaluation relative to its earnings.

Support is expected at the 200-day SMA ($4.72), while resistance is anticipated at the 50-day SMA ($5.45). A breakout above $5.45 could signal a bullish trend, while a breakdown below $4.60 may lead to further declines. Fundamentally, the companys strong market position, diversified revenue streams, and attractive valuations position it for potential upside, though near-term price action will depend on macroeconomic factors and investor sentiment.
