One-line posture
The board still supports selective offense, but there is no trade worth forcing. The right move is to respect the evidence lead, keep TXN on the board, and wait for cleaner execution instead of pretending extension is an entry.
Regime card
- AI/tech qualified: 1
- Publishable setups now: 0
- Qualified but wait-for-reset: 1 (TXN)
- Defensive / Staples qualified: 0
- Top catalyst to protect: none
- Revision-proof caveat: 8/98 pre/post event pairs — the archive is still dominated by post-only history.
This week’s operating read
Offense evidence survives, but live execution stays wait-only. AI/tech has one qualified name and zero publishable setups; Staples has zero qualified and zero near-miss names.
What deserves attention first
TXN / Texas Instruments
- Why it matters: qualified, wait-for-reset, with provisional evidence support.
- What must happen next: a strong up day after a controlled pullback; close in the upper half of the range.
- Guardrail: a break below the pullback low / 50-day moving average takes it off the board.
What would change my mind
- A real publishable setup surfacing from the current board.
- The offensive lead losing its evidence edge while Staples or another lane earns cleaner support.
- Fresh catalyst evidence turning the monitor queue into a better lead than TXN.
Discipline note
Do not manufacture urgency from a thin board. Evidence leadership and entry quality are not the same thing.
