WCLD's monthly window jumped the most, to +26.17%, and IGV remains the group's laggard — the only name with a negative trailing one-year return (-2.44%) even though it still sits 10.2% above its 200-day average.

| Signal | Reading |
|---|---|
| Overall | 🟡 The group cooled together for the first time in this stretch — no name reached overbought this scan, even as three of four extended further on the 30-day window. |

What's Going On
SKYY led last scan's overbought cluster and is now the one that cooled the most: RSI fell from 73.9 to 64.5, price from $165.34 to $161.23, while the 30-day change still edged up to +21.05% from +20.66% — the strongest monthly print in the group even as the weekly pace slowed (7-day change +5.87%→-2.48%). SKYY carries the group's strongest long-horizon numbers too: up 35.54% over the past year and 25.7% above its 200-day.
WCLD and CLOU both eased on RSI while their monthly windows kept climbing. WCLD's RSI fell from 69.2 to 65.1 as the 30-day change jumped from +17.53% to +26.17%; CLOU's RSI eased from 69.9 to 64.3 while its 30-day change extended to +21.06% from +17.88%. Both remain well above their 200-day averages (WCLD +28.1%, CLOU +26.6%) with strongly positive trailing-year returns (WCLD +20.6%, CLOU +29.02%) — this is a group-wide cooling of momentum inside intact, still-extending trends, not any kind of reversal.
IGV cooled the most and continues to lag the rest of the group: RSI fell from 64.0 to 60.5, and the 30-day change actually improved to +16.12% from +10.79% even as the weekly pace flattened (7-day -0.76%). IGV is the only name in this watchlist with a negative trailing one-year return (-2.44%, alpha1y -24.26) despite sitting 10.2% above its 200-day — a name whose recent bounce hasn't yet closed a full-year gap the other three names don't have.

How To Read The Board
All four names carry a golden cross (the 50-day average sits above the 200-day), consistent with a group that stayed in intact uptrends through this week's RSI cooling. The one divergence worth tracking is IGV's negative trailing-year return against the other three's double-digit one-year gains — it's the laggard structurally as well as on the week, even while still sitting comfortably above its own 200-day.
