Most Recent Note - 10/26/2020 12:27:58 PM
G - Due to report earnings results for the Sep '20 quarter tomorrow Tuesday, 10/27/20. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. Rebounding above its 50 DMA line ($82.05) today with a gain backed by higher volume. Any subsequent deterioration below the recent lows ($78.42 on 10/22/20 and $73.85 on 9/18/20) would raise greater concerns and trigger more worrisome technical sell signals. Faces some near-term resistance due to overhead supply up to the $94 level.
