Forecast
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.

flat-then-break
ThesisNICE trades at roughly 40 cents on the dollar of composite fair value with 5 straight EPS beats, but sentiment is deeply negative and the fallen-angel tape resists quick mean-reversion. Expect a slow grind higher as value gravity overcomes the sell-the-news reflex, accelerating once the stock reclaims the $110 attractive-below threshold.
Invalidated ifA close below $88 or a guide-down catalyst breaking the 5-quarter beat streak would falsify this 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
$156.96
(+59.3%)
— both lines get graded at every checkpoint, so the brain has to beat the formula, not just replace it.
