AI CONVICTION THESIS

Cross Country Healthcare clears the calibrated bar. All three legs are above the floor (Q58 V52 M73) and an active buyback provides the required corroboration. Nothing adverse is on file: no negative earnings revision and no insider selling. Momentum at M73 is the strongest part of the case, suggesting the market is beginning to price a bottom in healthcare staffing after a severe post-pandemic normalisation.
