Investment implication

The L1 gate blocked the positive-verdict path: a hard-floor threshold was breached, so dimensional pillars — including Sentiment at 7.8 could not lift the engine output above the verdict floor.

The strongest dimensions are Sentiment at 7.8, Value at 7.0, and Insider at 6.5; the weakest are Growth at 0.6, Peer rank at 0.9, and Risk (lower is worse) at 3.0. The V9 engine cleared all gates, producing an asymmetric reward-to-risk of 5.19 and an engine sizing output of AVOID.

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