Point-in-time. At any time t the system only uses data available at or before t. Conviction is the model’s confidence at parse time, not a calibrated probability. Calibration, source/actor trust priors, and region reliability are planned in F-007.
Throughline
VRT’s daily expectation moved from mixed rotational (0.40, 2025-11-26) through a peak of bullish continuation 0.75 (2026-02-11) to today’s mixed rotational (0.60).

Some gaps26 of 130 days in this window had zero events for VRT — longest gap 5 consecutive days. Some of this is real news quietness; some reflects pipeline gaps in Dec 2025 / Jan 2026 / early Feb 2026 (post-holiday weeks where fetch_today.py ran in degraded mode). A targeted gap backfill ran on 2026-05-18 to repair this; daily health checks were added downstream to prevent recurrence.

L1Narrative FieldBUILT / SHADOW VALIDATED

Events embed into a shared semantic space and cluster into coherent storms. Each storm has a stable ID that persists across days through F-002 lineage matching.

addsPlaces VRT inside a named narrative each day — and tracks when its center of mass shifts to a different one.
todayPrimary cluster: coreweave / earnings / vertiv. Density (7d): 0.174 (momentum +0.018, novelty 0.29). Cluster labels are auto-generated from the full event neighborhood — actor membership reflects shared AI-sector coverage, not exclusive company-specific coverage.

L4Performance FieldBUILT V1

Slices expectations into regions of (theme × direction) and asks, for each, whether forward returns relative to QQQ moved in the predicted direction. 5d / 10d / 20d horizons. Walk-forward — every observation uses only information available on its date.

addsCloses the loop. Realized outcomes calibrate which regions of the field actually pay.
todaySystem-wide: 65 public regions (73 limited, 343 insufficient) across 2,377 signed observations. All-expectations baseline runs 48% at 5d / 50% at 20d — close to chance overall, with edge concentrated in specific regions. 14 public regions are flagged inverted (corpus hit ≤ 30%); the operating layer reads them as contrarian. VRT appears in 26 public regions and 7 limited, including 4 inverted.

Hit rate = share of forward returns that moved in the predicted direction relative to QQQ. Delta vs the all-expectations baseline (48% at 5d, 50% at 20d). Green ≥ +10pp · red ≤ −10pp. Tiers: n ≥ 10 public, n 5–9 limited (shown with caveat), n < 5 insufficient (hit rate suppressed). INV badge: region flagged inverted (corpus hit_5d ≤ 30% on public tier); operating layer reads the contrarian direction (strike-through glyph shows the original L2 read, second glyph shows the effective direction).
FEEDBACKL4 measurements close back to upstream layersVISION

F-007 V1 measures region performance. The feedback loop itself is still V2: realized outcomes do not yet re-weight upstream conviction, source trust, or lifecycle thresholds. The current state machine uses static rules. For VRT, this is where the system would learn that — for instance — its winter bullish run on AI-infrastructure narratives held, or that today’s bearish read deserves more / less weight than its conviction suggests.

Conviction calibration
Re-weight L2 conviction by horizon, theme, and direction based on realized outcomes.
L4L1
