What Changed This Update 21 Sep → 2 Oct 2026 · 4 refreshes, 2 signal downgrades

This block had gone stale across four published reports — it still described the 21 September WCP.TO re-read while the rows below carried CCI.CN, WPM.TO, DLO and now SOFI. That is a propagation failure in the summary a reader sees first, and it is recorded here rather than quietly overwritten. All four are covered below, newest first.

★ Portfolio Watchlist

For each equity sector the model portfolio funds, up to two names per country we'd buy now to fill that tranche — the highest-confidence name plus the highest growth-potential name — with the sector's Aggressive / Balanced / Conservative weights. Names sit in the portfolio sleeve the Stock-Finder screens them under, not always their GICS sector: gold, silver and copper miners all sit under Materials (the metals themselves are held via ETF, not shown here), and an emerging-market name funded through EEM sits under EM Equities even when its GICS sector is Technology. A blank cell means no tracked name in that sleeve is a live short-term buy yet.

How the framework works

The first three tiles are the fundamental pillars that drive the base BUY / HOLD / SELL. The next two are the context pillars that amplify it to STRONG. The last two — Hard Gate and Entry/Exit — are the safety and action layer. Tiles are in the same order as the table columns.

Business Quality (0-100)

Competitive moat (5 dimensions), ROIC & capital allocation, revenue, profitability, balance sheet. Sector-specific: resource quality for miners, member growth for fintech.

Valuation Attractiveness (0-100)

Reverse-DCF implied growth, FCF yield, analyst consensus, historical decile, sector multiples (P/NAV, PEG, EV/EBITDA).

Entry/Exit Timing (0-100)

Multi-timeframe technicals, risk-reward, relative strength, sentiment and catalyst layers. The third fundamental pillar — with Quality and Valuation it sets the base BUY / HOLD / SELL.

Underlying Drivers (0-100)

The dominant external force the stock is tethered to — commodity, interest rates, macro regime, sector theme — scored for tailwind/headwind strength. A strong tailwind (≥65) can lift a BUY to STRONG BUY; a strong headwind (≤35) can push a SELL to STRONG SELL. It does not change the three fundamental scores.

Economic Alignment (0-100)

How the stock is helped or hindered by current economic conditions and capital flows, read from the macro report as a Tailwind / Neutral / Headwind pressure (plus a Trend-Following / Contrarian stance). Its pressure is the second amplifier: only a Tailwind enables STRONG BUY, only a Headwind enables STRONG SELL.

Hard Gate

Binary safety checks — financial distress, valuation ceiling, dilution/accounting, regulatory or binary events, driver collapse. A triggered gate caps the signal (even a STRONG BUY) at HOLD or lower; a Do-Not-Buy trigger blocks it entirely. Shown as ✓ clear / ⚠ caution / ⛔ stop.

Entry/Exit

The Conviction Ladder. Entry has three alternative paths — Fundamental (it's cheap), Technical (trend turned or at support), Catalyst (an event confirms it); a path counts only when all its sub-conditions hold, and any one path is a valid entry. How many agree sets the suggested size: 1 = Half-Size (a starter / scale-in), 2 = Full-Size, 3 = Over-Size, 0 = Wait (no path open — a strong signal can sit here when price is above its entry zones). A — means the name predates the ladder and populates on its next analysis. Exit triggers (stop-loss, thesis break, profit-target) are graded by severity in each report — a hit stop or confirmed thesis break is an Exit, a target hit is a Trim.

Reading a Portfolio Watchlist tile

The top grid maps the one name per country we'd buy now to fill each sector the model portfolio funds; the Agg / Bal / Con figures on the left are that sector's weight in each risk-tier portfolio. Each tile, top to bottom: a header row with the ticker (click it for the full report) and its Hard-Gate mark (✓ clear / ⚠ caution / ⛔ do-not-buy), the price the name was assessed at (Now) with its Base and Bull scenario targets, and the Entry/Exit conviction pill (Wait / Half / Full / Over-Size); the company; the five pillar scores — Quality, Valuation, Timing, Drivers (underlying) and Economics (alignment), green ≥70 / yellow 40–69 / red <40; and the Short / Medium / Long signals. A blank cell means no tracked name in that sector is a live short-term buy yet.

The base BUY / HOLD / SELL comes from the three fundamental pillars — Business Quality, Valuation Attractiveness and Entry/Exit Timing — through a decision matrix (short-term weights Timing, long-term weights Quality). The two context pillars then amplify it: a BUY with a strong Underlying-Driver tailwind and a Tailwind economy becomes STRONG BUY; a SELL into a driver headwind and a Headwind economy becomes STRONG SELL; HOLD never amplifies. Hard Gates and Do-Not-Buy triggers can then cap or block any signal. Triggers monitored 2× daily at 12:30 PM and 5:00 PM ET.
