Ran this benchmark on recently published real code base benchmarks to test the Sharp chat template that reduces token use and fixes bugs on locally run Qwen3.x models. Thought I’d bench Opus 5 high and Sonnet 5 medium alongside, for fun. I guess we have finally reached the point where the reduction in Claude’s quality has finally surpassed the upwards trend of local models for actual real world work. Claude Max 20x subscription btw. Not for long though hahah.

I don’t care about Artificial Analysis index or published benchmark numbers. If Opus is beaten by the models I run on my own computers when it comes to fixing real bugs without introducing regressions in real life code bases, it doesn’t matter if it’s because Anthropic is silently reducing Opus quality to sell more Fable tokens, or whatever is going on. EDIT: Someone asked me to add the chat template link to the op, so: https://huggingface.co/peculiar-ragdoll/Qwen-Sharp-Chat-Templates The "Sharp Qwen3.8-27B" model is here: https://huggingface.co/peculiar-ragdoll/Dirk-Qwen3.8-27B-GGUF and "Nail (Sharp 35B-A3B)" is here: https://huggingface.co/peculiar-ragdoll/Nail-Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-GGUF

SOFI and HOOD also face margin pressure from consumer-lending cyclicality and increasingly commoditized equities trading. Two of six tickers are filing-supported, while narrative energy remains elevated at 76.6%.

Real Estate & PropTech — Neutral

AI-driven data-center demand continues to support long-term lease commitments and pricing power among major data-center real-estate operators.

However, a higher-for-longer interest-rate environment creates pressure around refinancing, capitalization rates and duration exposure. Only one of four tickers is supported by filings. Narrative energy is moderate at approximately 75%, reflecting cautious optimism tempered by macroeconomic rate risk.

Data Licensing & AI Training Data — Bullish

RDDT, META and GOOGL are increasingly monetizing user-generated and proprietary content for AI training. At the same time, synthetic-data pipelines from OpenAI and Anthropic could reduce long-term dependence on human-generated datasets.

The RSL licensing framework is also gaining adoption, including by SONY. However, only one ticker is currently filing-supported. Narrative energy is high at 72.5%, suggesting speculative positioning, while dilution of user-generated-content quality by synthetic competitors remains a growing concern.

Electric Vehicles & Autonomous Transport — Neutral

Tesla missed earnings expectations by approximately 30%, while headlines focusing on Elon Musk’s apparent indifference have intensified concerns about structural margin compression.

China’s EV oversupply and LFP battery cost parity remain major pressures. NIO reported 62.9% year-over-year delivery growth, but price wars continue to dominate the narrative across GM, Ford and Rivian. Autonomous-driving software and vehicle-to-grid infrastructure remain important themes, although only three of six tickers currently show filing support.

Agentic AI & Autonomous Systems — Bullish

Workflow automation and enterprise AI agents are gaining traction across AMZN, MSFT, GOOGL and PLTR, with four of nine tracked tickers receiving direct filing support.

The narrative centers on embedded AI and machine-learning service layers, as well as defense and intelligence integration.

AI-inference infrastructure embedded within the advertising systems of META and GOOGL continues to improve targeting and reduce latency.

However, regulatory scrutiny surrounding behavioral engagement and data monetization is intensifying. RDDT is monetizing user-generated conversational data, while SNAP continues to lag peers in engagement metrics despite AI optimization. Only one of four tickers is filing-supported, and narrative energy stands at approximately 61.8%, reflecting mature monetization under regulatory pressure.

Quantum Computing — Bullish

The migration toward quantum-safe cryptography is accelerating as MSFT and IBM respond to increasingly defined post-quantum standards.

However, companies such as IONQ, RGTI and QBTS continue to face uncertain timelines for reaching meaningful fault-tolerance thresholds and commercial scale. Revenue limitations and possible equity dilution remain important risks despite technical progress. Two of six tickers are classified as narrative traps, while energy remains comparatively low at 60.8%, reflecting speculative positioning without near-term commercialization.

Cybersecurity — Bullish

Platform consolidation at PANW and AI-native threat detection at CRWD face structural pressure from Microsoft’s bundled security ecosystem, including Defender, Sentinel and Copilot.

One of three tracked tickers is classified as a narrative trap, while none currently shows direct filing support. This suggests that the sector’s AI-native security narrative has not yet translated into documented strategic changes. Narrative energy is moderate at approximately 65.8%, reflecting cautious positioning.

Energy Infrastructure & Power Grid — Neutral

Nuclear capacity and low-cost electricity for AI data centers continue to drive narratives surrounding CEG, DUK and VST, with two tickers receiving filing support.

However, water availability for thermal cooling is emerging as an acute regulatory and physical bottleneck that could limit scalability.

Filing data strongly supports infrastructure-investment momentum, with minimal narrative divergence across the sector.

Real Estate & PropTech — Neutral

Tickers named: DLR, EQIX, PLD, AMT

AI-driven data-center demand is sustaining 10–15-year lease commitments with strong pricing power for DLR, EQIX, PLD, and AMT, creating structural tailwinds despite higher-rate and longer-maturity exposure. Filing validation is robust across the sector, with minimal narrative divergence and low trap density. Power-availability constraints and refinancing risk in office portfolios remain binding operational challenges.

The Structural Tension:

MOS presents a classic market disconnect. Narratively, it's Surging with RBC's bullish posture and a $71.38 fair value (211% upside from $23). Yet beneath that headline sits a deteriorating reality:

Cons (The Red Flags):
- Guidance LOWERED — management is signaling headwinds, not tailwinds
- Trend: Collapsing — momentum is breaking, despite the "Surging" state
- Sentiment deeply negative (-54.7) — the market is skeptical of the bull thesis
- Health score weak (52/100) — fundamental condition is middling
- Narrative trap risk — the spread between fair value and price suggests either the stock is deeply undervalued OR analyst targets are disconnected from reality

Pros (The Bull Case):
- RBC's conviction — a credible bank sees value; they're not casual with "Buy"
- Narrative momentum is real — something has shifted attention toward MOS
- Trade class: ACCUMULATE at 85.4% confidence — institutional positioning suggests informed buying
- Specialty chemicals in Materials sector could benefit from margin recovery or supply normalization

The Reading:

This is a Narrative Trap watch. The bull case exists on analyst paper, but execution risk (lowered guidance) and sentiment erosion suggest the market doesn't believe it yet. If guidance stabilizes and health improves, the narrative could flip decisively. Until then, the 3.1x spread between price and fair value is either a gift or a mirage.

Watch for Q-next earnings inflection.

From my convo messing around with Kimi today- is there a LLM that exists that isn't citing Reddit like crazy (or stealing its data for training like Anthropic "allegedly" did, case pending in SF Superior Court)

Yesterday morning pre-market I shared these trading cards from the system. I did some investigating in the system on SMCI after seeing the card. From my interpretations of the system, it looked like it was about to pop. And it is up 22% today.

Some users have asked me to make more videos on how I use the system, which I am currently trying to duplicate in my decisions for live trading with the system. And yes I made a nice return from buying SMCI yesterday.

**This is not investment advice. The data I am referencing is from marketprism.co which is a deterministic machine learning system. Always do your own research.

Kind of obsessed with these new dashboard views...

They combine each stock’s historical earnings path with the current narrative, valuation, estimate changes, peer behavior and the signals actually active in the registry.

RDDT: Historically weak immediately after earnings, but averages a strong +7.4% drift over the following 10 sessions. Current read is Accumulate / Clear Path, although estimates have been cut sharply.

MSFT: Usually gains slightly into earnings, then averages a -3% immediate reaction and mild weakness afterward. The current narrative is still constructive, with four long signals open.

AAPL: Historically has positive post-earnings drift, but the current setup is labeled Exhausted Narrative and trades well above the model’s fair-value anchor. Four shorter-term longs remain active.

AA: The weakest historical setup of the group: -0.9% into earnings, -2.9% reaction and -3.4% drift afterward. The current cycle is already down roughly 15%, the narrative is exhausted, and three smaller swing longs remain open.

SMCI is looking very interesting

Note: Always do your own research before buying or selling a stock. The more you understand the reality of a company - its financials, risks, leadership, and long-term potential- the more conviction you’ll have when volatility hits. Don’t let fear shake you out of a strong position- but don’t ignore the facts and hold blindly, either.

A number of people questioned whether the signal results were simply overfit, driven by overlapping returns, or dependent on one favorable market period. So I ran a multi-year walk-forward test using per-ticker, point-in-time weights and only information that would have been available at each historical date.

The signal produced a positive five-day long-short spread in every year tested: +1.33% in 2024, +0.54% in 2025, and +1.27% in 2026. Across all 751 observations, the average spread was +1.01%, with a 59% positive rate.

Because five-day returns overlap, I am not relying on the inflated naive t-stat of 5.77. The result remains significant using Newey-West HAC, with a t-stat of 3.88, and on a fully non-overlapping sample, with a t-stat of 3.26 across 151 observations.

No serious quantitative test proves that an edge will persist forever. But a signal remaining positive across multiple years, surviving point-in-time walk-forward testing, holding up under overlap-adjusted statistics, and then continuing to perform positively in forward paper trading is materially different from a single optimized backtest.

That is the standard I have been trying to meet: not a perfect equity curve or a cherry-picked screenshot, but evidence that survives increasingly difficult attempts to disprove it.

Sector Summaries 07/17/2026

Real Estate & PropTech

Data center lease commitments with 10–15 year terms remain the structural demand driver for AMT, DLR, and EQIX, anchored by AI infrastructure build-outs.

Made this after I saw on article that growing seasons had changed. I added the part about the same areas that are currently drought stricken.

As someone who gardens, not sure anywhere in the U.S. is truly ideal even within high opportunities areas. These areas are prone to extreme flips in temperature and precipitation, which I believe is largely because the AMOC is in accelerated decay.

Most concerning being California where:

• California accounts for about 11–13% of the total value of all U.S. agricultural production, making it the largest agricultural state by sales.
• It grows nearly half of all U.S. vegetables.
• It produces more than three-quarters of U.S. fruits and nuts.
• California produces more than 400 different commodities, more than any other state.

Nice to see the system really work as intended.

This is the first time I’ve seen RDDT’s 20-trading-day forecast exceed $300 in the system.

To be clear, this is not a ChatGPT-generated price target. Market Prism is a machine-learning system that is roughly 95% deterministic. It does not interpret stocks the way ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or other general-purpose language models do.

It operates more like a quantitative research system. Each ticker is tracked daily across price action, volume, options data, earnings, guidance, news, narrative structure, and changes in market belief.

The backend runs continuously, and processes a database containing more than 90 million data points.

The system’s core methodology-particularly the way it models financial narratives and the decay of investor belief-was developed internally and is part of our patent-pending technology.

We have also published research showing that several of the system’s empirical findings are consistent with aspects of Robert Shiller’s work on narrative economics. Interestingly, I only became familiar with Shiller’s theories after the system and its underlying framework had already been developed. The system is built off frameworks I have spent decades learning and developing.

One side note: trading directly from a general-purpose LLM will often expose you to a polished version of the market’s existing consensus. In other words, you may be trading the signals of the herd unless the model is connected to highly specific proprietary data, calculations, and infrastructure.

This does not mean RDDT will reach $300, and this is not investment advice. I simply thought the forecast was notable because it is the first time the model has crossed that level.
