How the engine reached this verdict
TrendMatrix's engine output for Capri Holdings Limited (CPRI) is SELL_IF_HOLDING with high conviction, score 4.6/10 at $18.96. The F-path SELL output reflects an overall score of 3.1 below the 5.6 soft trigger — multiple weakening dimensions accumulated rather than a single hard-floor breach. Asymmetry R:R of 2.52 is supplementary context, not the trigger.
The engine's exit framework anchors to a tactical sell band near $18.96, with structural invalidation at $17.63. The asymmetric R:R against a reversal hypothesis is 2.52 — the upside scenario exists, but it requires multiple structural gates to flip; the downside scenario requires only one more disappointment. The engine's sizing output: 0.5% of portfolio at this asymmetry level (none-conviction tier).
On the bull side: Strong earnings beat streak (3/4); Attractive valuation; Analyst upside: 22%. On the bear side: Concentration risk — Product: Michael Kors (83.0%); Leverage penalty (D/E 16.9): -1.5; Weak overall score: 4.6/10. Active engine warnings: V9 Gate Failed: MOMENTUM:1.8<4.5, V9 Gate Failed: DEATH_CROSS:HARD_BLOCK.
The dominant failed gate is momentum at 1.8 vs threshold 4.5 (with co-failures: death cross). SELL flips back toward HOLD if momentum recovers above its threshold AND a co-failing gate also clears. The strongest-cleared gate today is ASYMMETRY:2.5>=1.5.
