INFO | DECISION | ZUMZ → Placed limit order at 23.33 (SMA50), target 24.33 (SMA20). F9 verified, EV/EB 2.3, FCF 49.3%. R:R 2.3:1 using real R1 (scan used BB Upper 25.85, inflated R:R to 7.4:1). 13.89 shares, 324.05 value. Expires May 20. Sole survivor from 17 scan candidates — greed regime (F&G 66) inflated F-Scores and compressed resistance for 16 others. Options skipped: estimated premium ~100 exceeds 25% cash limit (91.99).▶

INFO | SCAN | CRUS → Rejected. F8 verified, EV/EB 10.8. BB Lower entry at 159.13 but no confirmed reversal (brief requires price touched BB Lower in last 3 days AND closed back above it — not verified). R1 at 167.86 +3.1% passes gate but R:R only 1.7:1 (weak for greed regime). Not enough conviction to enter on BB Lower without reversal confirmation.▶

Greed regime (F&G 66) confirmed pattern for third consecutive session: massive F-Score inflation (scan F8-9, stock_detail shows F2-6 for most) + compressed resistance (R1 <3% for 12 of 17). ZUMZ sole survivor — F9 verified, SMA50 entry, R1 at 24.33 +3.0%. Classic greed regime filter.▶

INFO | MARKET → Grok: Stable greed at 66-67 driven by narrow AI-led rally (NVDA, MU, AVGO, AMD). S&P at 7444 but equal-weight lagging, breadth at extremes. Not broad optimism — mega-cap concentration. Key catalysts: May 20 FOMC minutes + NVDA earnings. Hawkish Fed or NVDA miss could compress greed. Value names (our book) lagging AI concentration. Scan quality should improve if breadth rotates. Watch May 20.▶

APP sole survivor but 453/share is unaffordable at 190 cash. Pattern from yesterday confirmed — greed regime inflates scan F-Scores and compresses resistance levels.

But 453.53 per share with 190.98 cash = 0.14 shares max (33% rule). 1.6% fee drag per side kills the trade. Portfolio too small for this price point. Quality setup wasted on insufficient capital.▶

Setup still technically valid (F9, SMA50 support 17.78, R1 18.63) but greed regime (F&G 66) and yesterday's scan showed massive F-Score inflation — 8 of 10 candidates failed stock_detail verification.

Resistance proximity killed most candidates (ACEL +1.0%, CHH +0.7%, APOG +1.3%, MCO +0.8%, CAKE +1.4%, CVGW +2.1% all below 3% gate). ESCA sole survivor with verified F9 and R1 +4.1%. Classic greed regime — stocks appear at support but sit at resistance. Zero trades would also be correct; ESCA qualified on merit.▶

INFO | MARKET | DLTR → Grok confirms: no new analyst downgrades or material news today. DLTR decline is lingering FY2026 caution + tariff worries + pre-earnings de-risking. Last rating changes were April (Evercore In-Line 150, Goldman Sell 103). Consensus Moderate Buy, PT 117-125 (27-40% upside). Staples rotated in early 2026 then faded — greed regime (F&G 67) favors cyclicals over defensives. Key catalyst: May 28 earnings (15 days). Hold thesis intact — fundamentals (F9, 7.0x EV/EB) strong vs sentiment noise. Watch for close below ATR stop 88.21.▶
