Sell if holding. Momentum 4.5/10 is below the 5.0 floor at $9.63 — engine's falling-knife protection flags exit rather than catching a breakdown. Specifics: Consecutive earnings misses (2); Earnings in 7 days (event risk). Chart setup: Death cross but MACD improving, RSI 41. Score 5.5/10, moderate confidence.

Passes 5/8 gates (favorable risk/reward ratio, clean insider activity, no SEC red flags, news events none recent, semi cycle peak clear). Fails on weak momentum and death cross (50MA < 200MA) and earnings proximity 7d<=7d. Suitability: aggressive.
