Phase 0.5 Mercury Stack (last 4h, accumulated since morning)
AI semi pipeline candidates (sleeve-eligible)
- 🚀 ARM — Wall Street upgrade cluster + PT $500 vs $324 (+54% upside) — PIPELINE PASS → EXECUTED
- 🚀 AMD — BofA Buy + PT $560 vs $459 (+22% upside) — pipeline-eligible but smaller materiality

- 🚀 RTX — DBS Buy + Iran war — pipeline-eligible (smaller upside)
- ⭐ LDOS — multi-billion Army contract; muted +0.9% move
Macro / Mixed
- 🚨 Iran war ESCALATION — Trump “very hard tonight” + Kharg seizure threat (90% Iran crude exports) ✅ cross-confirmed 5 outlets (Axios/CNN/WaPo/Euronews/MSNBC)
- ⚠️ ORCL — multi-analyst PT raises ($250 Barclays + multi-firm) BUT “AI Windfall Sticker Shock + high FY27 capex” — revenge-trade cooldown 3-5d still applies
- ⭐ GOOG/L — Anthropic data center backing (The Information) + Waymo Premier + Crusoe Wyoming concerns
- 🚀 MSFT — OpenAI acquires Ona cloud (Bloomberg) ⊖ Xbox layoffs (mixed)
- 🚀 BLK $5B SpaceX IPO order — mega anchor (WSJ exclusive); SpaceX IPO tomorrow Fri 6/12

Phase 0 Reaper
No RED signals. All 14 pre-midday positions held.
YELLOW: INTC -5.6% from this AM entry ($117.61 → $111.27); stop $109 = 2% cushion = TIGHT. Bull thesis intact (BofA double upgrade structural).
GREEN: All others. CSCO cushion improved 3.1%→4.3% intraday. GE/NVDA/MU/TSM bull-stack intact.
Phase 0 Harvest
No ratchets — no large intraday moves outside ratchet-only discipline.
Phase 0 Sage
Cash $17,879 (57.5%) — healthy. AI semi sleeve 10.1% fill vs 30% target = headroom for 2-3 more pipeline adds. No concentration risk. Iran war risk-off overlay = caution on tech sleeve adds but defense additions (Iran align) are diversification-positive.
