• The stock is trading just below the pivot of a stage-six flat base. As it

wait for the stage count to reset. On the downside, support is at the
50-DMA, 6% away.

• Strong fundamental ratings: SMR Rating of B, Composite Rating of
87, and EPS Rank of 64. The company has a healthy growth

the market during base formation, but we expect it to improve given
strong results. Institutional sponsorship has increased 48% y/y to 361

we published our European Weekly Summary, click here for the report. Key points from the report:
• Out of the 16 indices we cover, 12 are now in a Confirmed Uptrend.
• Technically, yesterday’s move is not without significance, as the Stoxx 600 broke above key long-term resistance of 377.
• We reiterate our view that value has still room to lead the market at the expense of extended growth sectors such as Technology and Health Care. The current environment and H2 2016 share obvious similarities.
