Wait — supporting gate not met yet. Price is at or below entry $28.04 but weak momentum still blocks BUY_NOW. Key risks: Earnings expected to decline ~57% (cyclical peak); Sector modifier (Basic Materials): -0.1. Chart setup: Death cross, below all MAs, RSI 32, MACD bearish. Growth is cheap relative to earnings, but the technical setup has not yet produced a breakout above resistance (PEG 0.36, quality 8.2/10, growth 10.0/10). Score 6.6/10, moderate confidence.

Passes 7/8 gates (favorable risk/reward ratio, clean insider activity, no SEC red flags, news events none recent, earnings proximity 72d clear, semi cycle peak clear, materials cycle peak clear). Fails on weak momentum. Suitability: aggressive.
