01How the bot thinks
Every Nasdaq 100 company is ranked on what the playbook cares about. Its long score, for how well a company fits:
The closest fits to the checklist: cheap on cash flow, small, cheap on book value. Score near 100.
A separate short score hunts the worst fits: expensive on cash flow, large, heavily indebted. 2 sourced overlays from the investor's filings and statements add to either side. Re-ranked every quarter, at the close. Loss-makers are allowed long.
How far a company sits from the checklist: expensive on cash flow, large, heavily indebted.
Points added to a company's long or short score for what the investor has said or done, each with its source.
02Model output
Short: #1 of 50 shorts on Mario Gabelli's long-minus-short score (-0.68).
03The bot's own results
3 of 8 right
The side its portfolio held on each day's stock. The bot doesn't pick: it holds all 100.
04The full book
Equal weight: $1,000 a position. Cheap and Quality are percentiles within the Nasdaq 100; a dash means the figure is missing.
05Method and limits
The 100 Nasdaq 100 companies. Anything outside it can't be held.
Long score: Cash-flow yield 4, Size 2, Book yield 1, Buybacks 1, Net margin 1, Leverage 1. Short score: Cash-flow yield 4, Size 2, Leverage 2, Buybacks 1, Net margin 1. Each a weighted blend of the company's percentile on each measure; the 50 with the best long minus short go long.
Always 50 long and 50 short. No market or rate bets. Changes fill at the next close.
Some tickers are missing figures and sit mid-pack on that measure. This profile is a draft and has not been reviewed yet.
