Sylvamo clears the calibrated bar. All three legs are above the floor (Q58 V65 M52) and an active buyback provides the required corroboration. Nothing adverse survives the evidence test: the only insider figure on file is selling that rounds to 0.00% of shares outstanding, which the framework treats as unusable rather than adverse, and there is no negative earnings revision. Value at V65 is the strongest part of the case.
