These per-flag figures are observational — a flag firing is not a randomized assignment, so any edge can reflect what kind of names trip a flag, not the flag itself. Descriptive, not causal.
Scope: these are forward returns vs the S&P among names still covered at each horizon's end, within the curated universe — not a survivorship-clean whole-market backtest. Names later dropped from coverage are counted as attrition (not hidden), and single-session moves beyond ±300% are treated as split/data artifacts and excluded.

AI take — daily, AI-generated
AI leans mixed
Slowest growth (11.2%) in the group with modest profitability (GP/A 0.26), though low PEG (1.7) and flat dilution suggest fair valuation; AI commercialization is speculative upside, not proven.
