Recommendation

Use this report for calibration only. Sample size is small (30 tickers, single capture day) and skewed toward tickers we already flagged as interesting — direction-agreement rates should not be read as accuracy. The disagreement queue is the actionable output: review each entry against fundamentals/news before any manual override. Do not change scoring weights based on this run.
