However, the RSI is at 41.96, indicating it is nearing oversold territory, which could present a buying opportunity if the price stabilizes. The main risk is the recent insider selling, where a Senior VP sold 1,750 shares at $166 each, which may signal caution among executives despite the company's strong earnings performance.
