Valuation vs Own History COMMODITY— slow-moving; 60d lag; EV/EBITDA canonical
Research notes (read before interpreting):
The news-vs-expectations thesis is UNTESTED by the backtest (look-ahead-impossible). Only Agent 6 live forward-tracking can validate whether news_adj improves outcomes. Treat news as a bounded refinement on trial, not a proven driver.
Fundamentals are annual with a 60-day reporting lag; EV/EBITDA is the valuation metric (P/E broke on 45 loss-year rows). Valuation reads are slow-moving, not point-in-time precise.
Percentile within this ticker's own 6-year fundamental history. High = expensive vs itself.

Canonical signal: avoid-misses is the durable edge (misses lag the basket ~4%/21d excess); beats merely match the sector once drift is stripped. Regime-dependent, effectively small-sample — not proven.

Consensus EPS Revision Trajectory COMMODITY
Forward-year consensus EPS over time — shows how estimates move after each print. Data accrues forward from snapshot start date.
AI Advancing 2026 catalysts: first 2nm production CPU (EPYC Venice), MI455X powers Helios rack; r6m +96%, r3m +40%. All three signals align (mech+news+surp).
▼ Bear case
Val_raw only 0.35 (EV/EBITDA 47.8 near top of own-hist range) — stretched valuation; kb_lesson #8: valuation is a damper, not a return source. Was sold on 07-13 at 534; re-entering ~40 pts lower is not a chase, but any pull-back below 470 (stop) should be respected.
News Lean UNPROVEN LIVE— UNPROVEN LIVE-ONLY: no historical validation possible

Microsoft adopting Helios as a named major customer is a concrete hyperscaler validation; stock sitting 17% below peak while adding the world's largest enterprise cloud operator as customer = bullish divergence vs. price
256-core Zen 6 on TSMC 2nm with 70%+ perf uplift and 16-channel memory exceeded cautious buy-side specs expectations; confirms AMD CPU competitive moat deep into 2027-2028 and sets up Aug 4 earnings with strong product-launch tailwind.
Event could validate AMD EPYC server CPU roadmap and Helios demand — street already pricing strong Q2 (+46% YoY), so execution confirmation matters more than new guidance
Server CPU share climbing to 33% (from 27% YoY) while Zen 6 on TSMC 2nm launches July 22 + Q2 earnings Aug 4; analyst raises suggest street estimates still catching up to actual demand trajectory
