What would change this verdict
What needs to turn for this to become buyable — the top failing checks across the legend council:
- Minervini 1.8 RS rank ≥ 70 (prefer ≥ 85) — RS rank 57
- Minervini 2. Quarterly EPS growth ≥ 25% — -47.5% QoQ
- O'Neil C: Quarterly EPS acceleration ≥ 25% — -47.5% QoQ
- O'Neil L: RS rank ≥ 80 (IBD leadership) — RS rank 57
- Weinstein Volume expansion above average — Volume ratio 0.81x
- Weinstein Relative strength ≥ 60 — RS 57
Minority view — the council disagrees here
- Minervini: watch Trend-template read: 6/10 pass; wait for the soft misses to improve.
- O'Neil: avoid CANSLIM read: fails C: Quarterly EPS acceleration ≥ 25%.
- Weinstein: watch Stage-analysis read: Stage 2 is present; 2 supporting checks need improvement.

Legend Score · rates the stock
Neutral (60/100) — 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%) 57
- Trend Template (25%) 88
- Institutional Footprint (20%) 67
- EPS Growth (15%) 30
- Quality (SMR-like) (15%) 44
RS rank 57: middle of the pack — no leadership yet. Trend template 7/8: price above rising 50/150/200-day lines — textbook uptrend structure. Institutional score 67: mild accumulation. EPS -0% last quarter — no earnings momentum. Quality 44: weak fundamentals (sales growth 30, return on equity 40, leverage 100). Updated 2026-10-27.

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 (73/100, 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:
7 of 9 legends are Watching — building, not yet a confirmed buy.
