AI CONVICTION THESIS

Elevance Health clears the calibrated bar. All three legs are above the floor (Q58 V64 M62) and a buyback across two filing days retiring 3.50% of shares outstanding provides substantial corroboration, one of the larger capital returns in this batch. Nothing adverse survives the evidence test: both insider figures on file, a purchase and a sale, round to 0.00% of shares outstanding and are therefore treated as unusable in either direction rather than as adverse, and there is no negative earnings revision.

The ranks quoted here are from the day it was written; today's Quality, Value and Momentum are the bars above.
