AI CONVICTION THESIS

Insufficient evidence for a screen-pass. Spark New Zealand Limited: clears the 50 floor (Q60/V67/M55) but not the 60 strong bar, and carries no corroborating filing signal (no net insider buying, no active buyback). Absence of evidence is neutral; nothing adverse is known.

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