Confidence 95.0/100

Takeaway Price has moved further than forward earnings growth currently justifies — worth weighing against the rest of the entry case.

12 quarters to Q1 26. Revenue and net income share one scale, so the gap between them is the margin. The line is GAAP EPS — it spans every quarter shown, where the reported figure only goes back as far as the consensus feed does.

Price Levels

StrategyAt Support Zone
Reference band 358.58 — 369.44
Protective stop 298.08 (Atr, 18.1% risk)
Support 362.20 (2 touches, 11.2% away)
Resistance 408.18 (1.4% away)

Takeaway The shares are nearer the ceiling than the floor: about 1.4% below 408.18, where sellers have turned up before, and 11.2% above 362.20, where buyers have stepped in before. That floor has held 2 times, which is how it was spotted. If someone bought at today's price and sold if it dropped through the level below, they would be about 18.1% out of pocket. That is all this figure means — an illustration of the risk, not a price to sell at.

Levels are computed from price structure. They describe where the engine locates support and extension — they are not targets, and not advice.

LinesTenkan/Kijun BEAR | cloud twist BEAR
Cloud eventFresh up breakout 0d ago
Cloud thickness48% percentile
Chikou spanAbove price from 26 periods ago
Weekly cloudPrice ABOVE the weekly cloud (context only, not scored)

Takeaway The stock is trading above its cloud — a shaded band drawn from several of its own moving averages, currently 372.33 to 392.37. Being above it means the medium-term picture is pointing upwards, and that band is the first place the stock has recent support if it slips back. Its shorter-term averages point the other way, so this is a mixed reading rather than a clear one.

Takeaway Lately this share price has been swinging around inside a range roughly 30% wide, and it recently went unusually quiet — calmer than it has been 84% of the time. When a stock goes quiet like this, its next move tends to look big by comparison. But quiet says nothing about which way it will go: Brown Bear tested calm-before-a-move as a reason to buy, and it did not work.

Sell filings0

Open-market Form 4 purchases and sales over the last 75 days, read from SEC EDGAR Form 4. Grants, option exercises, gifts and shares withheld for tax are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not a decision to buy or sell. Reported Form 4 activity. Brown Bear tested insider cluster-buying as a return signal and rejected it as era-unstable; shown as fact, not signal.

Volume confirmation

No absorption or distribution event in the recent window.

Takeaway Slightly more shares change hands on rising days than on falling ones, but the gap is too small to read anything into.

Takeaway Insuring against a move in this stock costs less for the next few weeks than for the next few months, which is the normal state of affairs and suggests no particular date is worrying anyone. Options traders are positioned for a move of around 9.5% in either direction by 2026-08-21.
