AIQ Brief

COST is currently in a mixed setup with AIQ 49/100 and Smart 6/10 (neutral relative) at $998.47. Risk is elevated. Read this as a prioritization signal, then confirm entry quality and sizing with your own risk plan.

Risk is the strongest contributor at 69/100, while Value is the binding constraint at 31/100. With a 38-point spread, the profile is imbalanced, so patience and entry discipline are more important than speed.

COST ranks 4/4 in this peer set (49 vs peer average 67.3). On risk-adjusted efficiency, Sharpe is below peer average (-0.66 vs 1.43). This helps distinguish true relative leadership from broad sector drift.

Action now: this is a neutral/selective setup. Improve entry quality by waiting for momentum acceleration or a better risk profile before adding. Keep sizing moderate until factors align.

Sharpe is -0.66, which is negative: recent return has not compensated for risk over this lookback window.
