It has not formed a sound base and is still sputtering below its 50 DMA line ($177) after damaging volume-driven losses as it abruptly retreated from its all-time high.

Prior highs in the $155 area define initial support to watch on pullbacks. Its annual earnings (A criteria) growth has not been strong and steady so it is fundamentally below guidelines of the fact-based investment system."
