The masterbrain trajectory — 7 dated checkpoints. Short rungs (2w, 1m) show the typical range as the primary claim; point calls run from 2 months out. Every claim still gets graded.

dip-then-recover
ThesisCVE trades close to composite fair value ($29.12) after a strong 6-month run, so upside is capped while modestly negative value and sentiment signals plus a neutral regime argue for a small drift lower before value gravity pulls it back toward $29. Negative beta and muted narrative suggest choppy, mean-reverting action rather than a directional move.
Invalidated ifA decisive close above $31 or below $25 on oil/earnings catalysts would falsify the range-bound mean-reversion thesis.

Why ranges on the short rungs?
A 102-prediction trial (2026-07-21) showed 2-week point calls carry no information here —
three prompt formulations all lost to simply predicting zero — while the stock's own
volatility scale (σ×√t) described those windows well. So the short rungs claim what's
actually knowable: the typical travel, with earnings timing flagged where the variance
will come from. The internal point calls keep being generated and graded to map where
real skill begins. Full evidence: stocks/predictions/V0.5-DESIGN.md §8.
Deterministic control (v0.3 value line) targets
$29.15
(+3.1%)
— both lines get graded at every checkpoint, so the brain has to beat the formula, not just replace it.
