AIQ vs Wall Street

The model and the Street disagree here: AIQ favors ABEV, analyst targets favor BG. That disagreement is the most useful thing on this page.

Implied upside to target+15.8%+44.9%BG has more room
Target dispersion+21.1%+28.6%Lower is tighter analyst agreement
ConsensusHoldBuyContext, not a primary driver

The two are measuring different things. The AIQ Score reads current fundamentals, valuation, trend and risk; analyst targets price forward expectations. A divergence of this kind is either a contrarian opportunity or a sign the model is missing something already priced in — it is worth resolving before acting on either.

Analyst targets are expectations, not predictions. Dispersion matters as much as the midpoint.

Price vs model alignment

Whether the latest session's price move confirms what the model did over the same session, or contradicts it.

ABEVConfirmed weakness

Price and the AIQ Score both moved down over the latest session (price -0.37%, AIQ -1 points).

BGDivergence

Price is up while the AIQ Score moved down 2 points over the same session — price and model disagree (price +0.65%, AIQ -2 points).

What would flip this result

A state, not a forecast. These are the specific, observable changes that would reverse the verdict — not a price prediction.

  1. 1BG closes the Quality gap — currently 47 points behind, the largest single contributor to ABEV's edge.
  2. 2BG's Death Cross Active resolves — a bearish trend rule currently active against it.
  3. 3ABEV's conflicting signal state resolves bearish — it currently carries 3 bullish and 2 bearish rules at once.
  4. 4The narrowing continues — the lead has already given back 14 points over 30 sessions, and a further 6-point move would eliminate ABEV's advantage entirely.

How this comparison is scored

The Algovestiq AIQ Score composites four factors — Quality, Value, Momentum and Risk, each carrying a fixed weight. Sentiment is reported separately as SentimentPulse and is not folded into the composite. Scores refresh every trading day, and this page regenerates from the latest snapshot rather than being written once.

The verdict names a leader, states how broadly six independent evidence groups agree, and rates how durable that conclusion is given the score gap, its recent trajectory and the current signal state on both names.
