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.

ThesisWAB is in a momentum breakout with strong quality, positive sentiment and beating earnings consistently, but trades well above value-lens attractive zone ($250). Near-term path likely drifts higher on momentum, then flattens/gives back modestly as valuation gravity and neutral regime cap upside heading into winter.
Invalidated ifBreak below $280 on volume, or a rail customer guide-down / miss on WAB's next print would invalidate the momentum leg.

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.

— both lines get graded at every checkpoint, so the brain has to beat the formula, not just replace it.
