🧭 Decisions
| strategy | ticker | action | side | rationale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S1 | MSFT | ○ skip | — | verdict FRESH, direction bullish -> long MSFT (product: Microsoft deployed its second-generation Maia 200 custom AI chip, claiming 30-40% lower operational costs compared to Nvidia hardware for specific inference workloads.) [skipped: post-close — wanted long MSFT after the 2026-08-11 session close; same-day exit window gone] → close +0.26% |
| S2 | TSM | ○ skip | — | inferred long: materiality 65 below floor 75 → close +0.13% |
| S3 | AMD | ○ skip | — | direction unclear for AMD → close +0.18% |
| S4 | MSFT | ○ skip | — | overnight drift: long MSFT at close, exit next close (product: Microsoft deployed its second-generation Maia 200 custom AI chip, claiming 30-40% lower operational costs compared to Nvidia hardware for specific inference workloads.) [skipped: post-close — wanted long MSFT after the 2026-08-11 session close; close-entry window gone] |

📖 Glossary
- S1 primary — trades the alert's primary ticker in the direction the article itself indicates; exits at the same day's close.
- S2 counterparty — trades the inferred counterparty ticker (weakest signal, LLM-inferred sympathy); exits at the same day's close.
- S3 peer — trades an inferred peer ticker (also LLM-inferred sympathy); exits at the same day's close.
- S4 overnight — holds the primary ticker from today's close to the NEXT day's close.
- Verdicts are decided top-to-bottom, first match wins; REPRICING is also the fallback when nothing else matches (2026-08-08 #220).
- UNKNOWN — a needed price input (move since close or move in the last 30m) is missing.
- PRICED — |move since previous close| ≥ 2.0%: already reflected in price.
- REPRICING — |move in the last 30m| ≥ 0.5%: the tape is actively moving on it. Also covers a quieter move — |move since previous close| in [1.0, 2.0) with a quiet last-30m tape: still developing, not yet priced.
- FRESH — |move since previous close| < 1.0%: a genuinely new move.
- materiality — how market-moving the story was judged, 0-100 — alerts require materiality ≥ 60.
