Sell if holding. Momentum 3.4/10 is below the 5.0 floor at $6.05 — engine's falling-knife protection flags exit rather than catching a breakdown.

Passes 7/9 gates (favorable risk/reward ratio, clean insider activity, no SEC red flags, news events none recent, earnings proximity 51d clear, semi cycle peak clear, materials cycle peak clear). Fails on weak momentum and death cross (50MA < 200MA). Suitability: aggressive.
