Retrospectives

META S1+2.76%-0.21%

Signal was right and is the dominant factor. The short on the "$200B AI spend" headline predicted bearish, and META fell from 755.38 to 737.89 (–2.3%) while open, with worst drawdown only –0.21%, so the thesis played out almost immediately and cleanly.

Timing was fine: at decision time the stock was only –0.36% from prev close, so the move had not yet happened; the fill at 755.38 (–0.93% vs. 762.50) means roughly half a percent leaked between decision and fill, but the bulk of the drop came after entry. Exit captured most of what was available: +2.32% realized against +2.76% best unrealized (~84%), leaving ~0.44% on the table — a minor give-back rather than a flaw. Whether the exit was a target, trail, or time stop isn't stated here, so I can't judge the exit mechanism itself, only that it was close to optimal.

📖 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 ≥ 70.
