Only for margin-equipped accounts. Note explicitly.\n   naked_call   — bearish setup with elevated IV. UNCAPPED loss if rally.\n                  Confidence ceiling 4 (Compliance enforces). Requires\n                  explicit upside-shock thesis + defense plan in conditions.\n\nMatch the structure to the thesis shape — don't reach for naked options\njust because the premium is fatter. Most candidates are best as long_stock\nor CSP.

This is a false positive from the trigger. However, the broader picture is technically compelling: RSI at 23.1 (deeply oversold), stock down ~21% from 52-week high of $379, yet fundamentally healthy with 4 consecutive quarters of positive EPS surprise, record Q1 revenue, and robust $38.7B backlog.

All Form 4s are routine equity comp vesting/tax withholding. `insider_open_market_purchases_90d` is empty.\n- Options flow: ATM IV ~31-33%. Put/call ratio 2:1. OI at 295 put, 335/325 calls. Net directional bias to puts.\n- Catalyst: Next earnings 2026-07-24. 4 consecutive positive EPS surprises. Guidance raised.\n- Mispricing: Fwd P/E 22 vs sector 18.5. EV/EBITDA 34.3 vs 14.6. FCF yield 2.97%. Expensive.\n- Quality: ROIC null. Gross margin stable. Net debt/EBITDA 6.9.\n- Technical: Below 50DMA and 200DMA. RSI 23.1 (oversold). No MACD cross.\n- Anti-signal gates: `dilution`, `accounting`. The dossier mentions \"accounting\" and \"dilution\" in anti_signals_present. Wait, the prompt says: \"If scoring_inputs has anti_signals_present non-empty, treat each entry as a gate; skip unless you can articulate WHY it doesn't apply to this case.\" The dossier lists \"dilution\" and \"accounting\". I need to check if they apply. The dossier says \"Accounting irregularities (restatements, auditor changes)\" is a gate. The 10-Q mentions \"Environmental contingencies disclosed; no going-concern issues noted.\" It mentions \"accounting\" in anti_signals_present but doesn't clearly state a restatement or auditor change. However, the prompt says to treat it as a gate. I will note it but might be able to argue it's just a flag from the scout, or I'll just skip because the score will be low anyway.\n- Risk class: Core (> $5B).\n- Thresholds for Core: ≥80 publish, 70-79 publish, 60-69 publish, 50-59 skip unless catalyst<30d + insider cluster, <50 skip.\n\nLet's score strictly:\nA. Smart-Money Cluster (max 25):\n- 0 distinct insider buyers. 0 pts.\n- No CEO/CFO buy. 0 pts.\n- No >$5M. 0 pts.\n- No 13F. 0 pts.\n- No politician. 0 pts.\n- Penalty: None mentioned (selling is null).\nScore: 0.\n\nB. Options Flow / UOA (max 10):\n- Whale call blocks OTM: None mentioned.\n- Bullish IV skew: No, put skew is notable.\n- Net dollar bias > 30%: It's -15,957 net dollar notional (bearish/neutral).\n- OI building at defended level: 295 put / 325-335 calls suggest range.\nScore: 0 or 1. Let's give 0.\n\nC. Catalyst (max 25):\n- Earnings within 90 days (July 24) AND last 4 quarters EPS surprise > 0%: +10 pts.\n- Guidance raise in last 90d: +5 pts.\n- Quantifiable sector tailwind: DoD budget growth / geopolitical tailwinds. +5 pts.\nCap at 25. Score: 20.\n\nD. Mispricing (max 15):\n- Fwd P/E 22 vs sector 18.5 (premium, not discount). 0 pts.\n- EV/EBITDA 34.3 vs 14.6 (premium). 0 pts.\n- FCF yield 2.97% (not ≥7%). 0 pts.\n- SOTP gap: Not mentioned.\nScore: 0.\n\nE.

Skip threshold is <50.\nAlso, anti-signal gates: \"dilution\", \"accounting\". The dossier says accounting is a flag but doesn't confirm a restatement. However, the score is 20 anyway. I will skip.\nReason: No insider buying, expensive valuation (22x P/E, 34x EV/EBITDA), high leverage (6.9x net debt/EBITDA), and below key moving averages. Lacks the mispricing or quality metrics required for a core defense prime trade.\n\nWait, let's double check the scoring rubric.\nA: 0\nB: 0\nC: 20 (10 for earnings+surprise, 5 for guidance raise, 5 for sector tailwind)\nD: 0\nE: 0\nF: 0\nTotal: 20.\n\nThe dossier explicitly says: \"The valuation premium (22x fwd P/E vs sector peers at 18-19x) argues against an asymmetric long\".\nIt's a core stock ($56B).\nScore 20 is a clear skip.\n\nI will output the skip JSON.\nCheck format:\n{\n  \"skip\": true,\n  \"score\": 20,\n  \"score_breakdown\": {\n    \"smart_money\": 0, \"options_flow\": 0, \"catalyst\": 20,\n    \"mispricing\": 0, \"quality\": 0, \"technical\": 0\n  },\n  \"reason\": \"Lacks insider buying, trades at a significant premium to peers (22x P/E, 34x EV/EBITDA), and carries high leverage (6.9x net debt/EBITDA) with no technical momentum.

The prompt says \"ANTI-SIGNAL GATES (any one of these forces skip regardless of score)\". I will note that the accounting/dilution flags are procedural or unverified in the dossier, but the fundamental score is too low to proceed anyway. I'll keep the reason concise.\n\nAll good.

I should briefly address this in the reason to be safe, or just rely on the score < 50 rule which says \"Skip\". The prompt says \"ANTI-SIGNAL GATES (any one of these forces skip regardless of score)\". I will just state that the dossier flags are unverified/procedural and the fundamental score is too low anyway. But the prompt says \"skip unless you can articulate WHY it doesn't apply\". I'll add a note about it in the reason if needed, but the score < 50 is a hard skip. I'll keep it concise.\nActually, the prompt says: \"If scoring_inputs has anti_signals_present non-empty, treat each entry as a gate; skip unless you can articulate WHY it doesn't apply to this case.\" This implies I should mention it if I were publishing, but since I'm skipping on score, it's fine.
