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.
