Technical Indicators

RSI (14)
55.2
Relative Strength Index (RSI): measures how fast and how much the price has moved recently, on a 0-100 scale. Above 70 is often called "overbought" (may be due for a pause or pullback); below 30 is "oversold" (may be due for a bounce). It is not a guarantee either way.
SMA 20 / 50 / 200
95.91 / 94.23 / 92.86
Moving Averages (SMA): the average closing price over the last N days, smoothing out day-to-day noise. When price trades above its moving averages, and shorter averages are above longer ones, it is generally read as a healthier trend.
MACD / Signal
0.28 / 0.40
MACD: compares two moving averages (12-day and 26-day) to gauge momentum. When the MACD line crosses above its signal line, momentum is turning up; crossing below suggests momentum turning down.

Fundamentals

P/E
24.9
Price-to-Earnings ratio: how many dollars investors pay for $1 of the company's annual profit. Higher usually means the market expects faster growth (or the stock is expensive); lower can mean it's cheap — or that growth is expected to slow.
Market Cap
109.63B
Market Capitalization: the total value of all the company's shares — share price × number of shares. A rough measure of company size.
Div Yield
3.13%
Dividend Yield: the annual cash dividend paid to shareholders, as a percentage of the current share price.
52-Week Range
83.80 – 100.84
52-Week Range: the lowest and highest price the stock has traded at over the last year. Where the price sits in this range hints at recent strength or weakness.
