AI CONVICTION THESIS

Eligible on the quant gate (Q72/V62/M54, corroborated by active buyback (1 filing days, 6.79% o/s repurchased)) but blocked by nameable adverse evidence: net insider selling 0.01% of listed shares in 90d; forward-EPS consensus revised -1.1% over ~4 weeks. Held at FLAG rather than REMOVE: the evidence is a caution, not a thesis-breaking event.

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

SwingsVery bumpy

Swung more than 70% of stocks we rank over the past year (56% a year).

How this is worked out

What it measures: day-to-day price moves over the past year, as a yearly figure, ranked against every stock we cover. Very calm under 20% a year, Calm 20 to 30%, Average 30 to 40%, Bumpy 40 to 55%, Very bumpy above that.

What we found: across about 13,500 stocks in 34 markets (2002 to 2025), past swings were a good guide to the next year's, and bumpier stocks fell further. How much further changed too much between eras to put a number on it.

Calm is not safe: a calm stock can still slide steadily.

Rules fixed before any data was fetched. Describes the chart, not a recommendation.
