Investment implication

The L1 gate blocked the positive-verdict path: a hard-floor threshold was breached, so dimensional pillars — including Risk (lower is worse) at 6.8 could not lift the engine output above the verdict floor. Failed gate signal: MOMENTUM:3.2<4.5.

The strongest dimensions are Risk (lower is worse) at 6.8, Technical at 6.3, and Catalyst at 5.1; the weakest are Quality at 0.9, Momentum at 3.2, and Value at 3.8. The V9 engine flagged 2 failed gates with 1 warning, producing an asymmetric reward-to-risk of 0.00 and an engine sizing output of AVOID.

Engine reasoning is mechanically derived from pipeline gate outputs. See decision view.
