Investment implication

The L1 gate blocked the positive-verdict path: a hard-floor threshold was breached, so dimensional pillars — including Growth at 7.7 could not lift the engine output above the verdict floor. Failed gate signal: MOMENTUM:4.4<4.5.

The strongest dimensions are Growth at 7.7, Sentiment at 7.0, and Value at 6.2; the weakest are Risk (lower is worse) at 1.9, Quality at 2.8, and Technical at 3.4. The V9 engine flagged 2 failed gates with 1 warning, producing an asymmetric reward-to-risk of 1.02 and an engine sizing output of AVOID.

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