overnight drift: long NVDA at close, exit next close (earnings: Nvidia shares surged 8.7% following better-than-expected quarterly results and strong guidance, pushing CEO Jensen Huang to become the world's sixth-richest person.)

Signal/timing failure — stale news. The rationale cites an 8.7% earnings surge, but price context at decision time (-0.57% vs prior close, drifting down over the last 30m) indicates that move had already happened before entry; the "FRESH" verdict looks wrong. Post-entry, the direction was wrong: the trade never got more than +0.95% in favor and fell as far as -4.41%. The exit at -3.92% is near the worst unrealized, but with only +0.95% ever available, exit quality is a minor factor — the dominant problem is entering long on an already-priced-in move.
📖 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.
