What would change this verdict
What needs to turn for this to become buyable — the top failing checks across the legend council:
- Minervini 1.1 Price > 150-day MA AND 200-day MA — Price $316.80, MA150 $349.19, MA200 $341.27
- Minervini 1.4 50-day MA > 150-day MA AND 200-day MA — MA50 $342.36, MA150 $349.19, MA200 $341.27
- O'Neil C: Quarterly EPS acceleration ≥ 25% — +8.8% QoQ
- O'Neil L: RS rank ≥ 80 (IBD leadership) — RS rank 56
- Weinstein Stage 2 (Advancing phase) confirmed — Stage 1 (Basing)
- Weinstein Price above 30-week MA (200-day proxy) — Price $316.80 vs MA200 $341.27
Minority view — the council disagrees here
- Minervini: avoid Trend-template read: fails Price > 150-day MA AND 200-day MA.
- O'Neil: avoid CANSLIM read: fails C: Quarterly EPS acceleration ≥ 25%.
- Weinstein: avoid Stage-analysis read: basing (Stage 1) is not an advancing Stage 2.

Weak (49/100) — held back by eps growth
Our proprietary 0-100 rating — the answer to Wall Street's black-box scores. Five pillars, each computed from real scan data, each explained below in plain English.
- Relative Strength (25%) 56
- Trend Template (25%) 50
- Institutional Footprint (20%) 56
- EPS Growth (15%) 30
- Quality (SMR-like) (15%) 45
RS rank 56: middle of the pack — no leadership yet. Trend template 4/8: mixed — some uptrend elements, some missing. Institutional score 56: neutral — no clear institutional conviction. EPS up +0% — growing, but below the 25% leadership bar. Quality 45: weak fundamentals (sales growth 30, return on equity 42, leverage 100). Updated 2026-10-19.

Legend Verdicts
6 methodology checks
Who would consider this setup, why it qualifies, and what blocks it — calculated from the same deterministic methodology rules used across Legend AI.
How to read the numbers: the setup score (0/100, in the verdict band) rates this trade setup. Each legend's A–D grade rates the same setup against that legend's own checklist — so a high score next to a C grade is not a contradiction. The setup can be strong without fitting that legend's style. When the council disagrees, the verdict band breaks the tie.
Council consensus:
4 of 9 legends are Watching — building, not yet a confirmed buy.
