Projection vs Actual (6M history + forecast)

The masterbrain's trajectory (blue, curved through its 7 checkpoints), the deterministic v0.3 control (dashed), and the actual price (green) overlaid from the prediction date forward.
Forecast Change +5.3% to $91.80
Predicted High $91.80 at 6 months
Predicted Low $87.60 in 2 weeks

Forecast

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. Predicted Aug 8, 2026 12:55 am
Bull MDT trends higher to $91.80 (+5.3% from $87.15) by Feb 2027. dip-then-recover
ThesisMDT is a low-beta defensive with modest positive sentiment and a supportive risk-on tape, trading slightly above composite fair value but below DCF. Expect a gentle drift higher toward the deterministic baseline, with value gravity capping upside since shares are not cheap on the value lens.
Invalidated ifA break below $82 on sustained volume or a regime flip to risk-off would falsify the gentle uptrend

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 $91.85 (+5.4%) — both lines get graded at every checkpoint, so the brain has to beat the formula, not just replace it. Brain: claude-opus-4-7.

Not Yet Modeled

What this v0.6.0 forecast deliberately ignores — the work ahead, in plain sight.
  • Scenario probabilities — one path, no bull/bear split (base_prob = 1.0).
  • Intraday / sub-2-week behaviour — the first claim is at 14 days by design (EOD product).
  • Position sizing / portfolio context — the path is a price claim only.
