AI commentary

News tone is earnings-led and positive after the Q2 beat and guidance raise. The packet's pre-earnings reference was $263.14 versus the July 30 anchor of $279.34, a 6.2% increase, but this is not a clean event-window attribution. Post-print analyst revisions remain unavailable, so the setup stays cautiously positive and monitoring-oriented.
