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.

dip-then-recover
ThesisNICE screens deeply undervalued with strong quality and a 5-of-5 earnings beat streak, but heavy negative sentiment and fallen-angel scar tissue cap the near-term rebound. Expect a shallow drift lower or sideways early, then gradual mean-reversion toward the mid-130s as value gravity outweighs fading pessimism over months 3-6.
Invalidated ifA break below the $95 attractive-below level on volume, or a guide-down at next print, would falsify the recovery 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.
Deterministic control (v0.3 value line) targets
$154.96
(+56.1%)
— both lines get graded at every checkpoint, so the brain has to beat the formula, not just replace it.
