Performance scores 69 points (strong). Key strength: 5Y return at 134.2 %. Even the weakest return is still strong in absolute terms: 10Y return at 141.8 %.
Stability scores 26 points (weak). Best-ranked metric: current drawdown at -7.0 %. Main drag: volatility (365d, annualized) at 10,091.2 %. That implies very high day-to-day swings. Higher Stability points are better and typically reflect calmer swings and smaller drawdowns-but prices can still fall.
Trend scores 71 points (strong). Key strength: Price is about 13.6 % above SMA200. Even the weakest metric remains solid in absolute terms: SMA50 distance at -1.1 %.
