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.

Earnings Surprise Track Record COMMODITY
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.

News Lean UNPROVEN LIVE — UNPROVEN LIVE-ONLY: no historical validation possible
▲ bullish near 2026-07-23
Gross margin nearly doubled vs guidance (8.2-8.4% to 15-17%) driven by customer/product mix — market had feared structural margin depression; clear beat vs the prevailing bear thesis, with record orders adding long-horizon optionality.

▼ bearish near 2026-07-21
Hold consensus with only 3 Strong Buys out of 20 analysts; expectations had priced in governance recovery but legal scrutiny keeps institutional buying limited — rally needed a cleaner story
source ↗
▼ bearish near 2026-07-14
Legal/regulatory risk far exceeds expectations; market had largely priced out SMCI prior accounting scandal overhang — fresh criminal probe re-introduces tail risk not in analyst models, especially with China export restrictions already a flashpoint.

▼ bearish near 2026-07-14
$7B equity raise signals dilution risk; while $39B backlog sounds bullish, capital structure concerns and legal overhang keep consensus at Hold — retail may buy the 'AI server demand' headline and miss the dilution.
source ↗
▲ bullish long 2026-06-24
Analyst preference for SMCI over NBIS due to broader customer base and improving estimates signals growing recognition of SMCI execution vs prior accounting/governance concerns — sentiment reversal vs prior bearish expectations.
