AI CONVICTION THESIS

Oil-Dri Corporation makes cat litter and absorbent clay products, a defensive category where it has gained share, with a good quality score (Q77) and very strong momentum (M87). However the value score is the most expensive in this batch (V28) after a large re-rating, and the buyback signal is a single filing day. Nothing adverse is known, but the valuation withholds a screen-pass.
