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
ThesisLULU trades at a deep discount to composite fair value ($185) with a hostile sentiment tape and a binary Sept 3 earnings event looming. Given 4-of-4 EPS beats, the likely path is a post-earnings relief bounce followed by gradual mean-reversion toward the low-$150s baseline as value gravity works over months, though sentiment headwinds cap the upside.
Invalidated ifA sharp Sept 3 earnings miss or guide-down that breaks below the $110.87 bear scenario would falsify the recovery path.

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
$149.60
(+23.5%)
— both lines get graded at every checkpoint, so the brain has to beat the formula, not just replace it.
