Today's pick · Forecast PureCSVBUY NOW8.4 / 109/10/2026

Carriage Services (CSV) is the cleanest multi-timeframe long setup in this pool. Every Kronos horizon points up from here: 4h +39.4%, 1d +14.5% short / +35.3% mid / +31.7% long, and even the beaten-down 1wk turns positive by mid (+16.8%) and long (+25.4%). That is rare — most 'bullish_prob=1' names in this pool still have at least one negative timeframe. Kronos flagged a near_term_bullish score of 1.0, the maximum in the set. Critically, you are NOT chasing. CSV sits at position_in_21bar_range_pct = 0 on all three visible timeframes, with a weekly drawdown of -36.9% from the 21-bar high, and RSI at 31.7 (oversold). The stock has been left for dead — perfYtd -23.95%, perfYear -24.55% — which is exactly the profile where Kronos's mean-reversion + trend-shift edge tends to be highest. Compare that to names like MTSI, HALO, NMM, PAYS, TRMD — all sitting at 80-100% of range with sharply negative forecasts (classic don't-chase signals the model is screaming to avoid). Fundamentals give real ballast: PE 11.51, fwdPe 8.84, PEG 1.22, profit margin 10.57%, ROE 17.13%, analyst recom 1.2 (Strong Buy), and consensus targetUpsidePct of +61%. Fundamental_score 6.75 is near the top of the group. The main news blemish is a modest price target trim (from Fintel, -12% to $53.72) — still 66% above spot — and a StockStory 'warning signs' piece. Neither is a guidance cut, dilution, or litigation, so this is a landmine-free entry. Why today, not later: CSV is already at the floor of its 21-bar range across all timeframes with RSI in oversold territory and Kronos calling for a sharp 4h/1d bounce (+14-39%). Waiting for confirmation likely means paying $34-36 instead of $32, giving up the highest-conviction portion of the move. The stop is well-defined just under the recent low.

Entry zone

$31.60 - $32.40 (starter at market near $32.17, add on any dip to $31.60-31.80)

Stop loss

$29.40 (below the multi-timeframe range low; ~8.6% risk)

First target

$36.80 (aligns with 1d fc_short +14.5%; take partial)

Longer target

$42.50 (aligns with 1d fc_mid +35.3% / long +31.7%; ~32% upside)

Risks

Price-target cut of -12.22% to $53.72 signals sell-side is trimming enthusiasm; further downgrades could cap the bounce
Weekly drawdown -36.9% and perfYear -24.55% indicate a real downtrend — Kronos is calling a reversal that has not yet been confirmed by price action (pos_in_range = 0%)
debtEq 1.97 is elevated for the sector; funeral services demand is inelastic but rate-sensitive to refinancing
Small-cap ($511M) with modest liquidity — a wide stop is required and slippage on exits is possible
salesYoY only +1.33% — this is a valuation/mean-reversion trade, not a growth story

Honorable mentions

CNMAll Kronos timeframes positive (4h +28%, 1d +18%, 1wk +15%), position_in_range = 0-1.5%, and Q2 earnings JUST printed with 'record buybacks' as a fresh catalyst. Fundamentals solid (fwdPe 12.27, ROE 23.44%, targetUpside +36.7%). Slightly smaller forecast magnitude than CSV keeps it at #2.

CPRTBest 4-timeframe consistency in the pool (1h/4h flat-to-slightly-positive, 1d +11-19%, 1wk +12-23%), high-quality business (operMargin 36.6%, profitMargin 33.5%, debtEq 0.01). Downgraded to #3 because earnings hit tomorrow (per 9/9 headline) — binary event risk means BUY_PULLBACK post-print is smarter than BUY_NOW.

1	CSV	BUY NOW	8.4	All timeframes positive, at range low, RSI 31.7 oversold, fundamentals clean, near_term_bullish=1.0.
2	CNM	BUY NOW	7.9	All-positive Kronos stack at range floor with fresh Q2 buyback catalyst just announced.
3	CPRT	BUY PULLBACK	7.4	Best 4-timeframe agreement in the pool but earnings tomorrow — wait for the print.
4	NNVC	BUY PULLBACK	6.5	All positive forecasts, RSI 21 deeply oversold, Ebola/measles trial catalysts — but $26M micro-cap with no revenue metrics.
5	OGI	BUY PULLBACK	6.2	Cannabis reversal setup — all 4 timeframes positive at 0-44% of range, PE 2.43, but negative operMargin -30% is a red flag.
6	SRAD	WAIT	5.8	Strong 4h/1d forecasts (+57%/+39%) but 1wk barely positive; -46% YTD needs a base first.
7	TSSI	WAIT	5.2	1wk forecasts turn deeply negative (-48%) — timeframe conflict undercuts the bullish 1d call.
8	MAGIC-USD	WAIT	4.8	Crypto with +38% expected return but no multi-timeframe detail; speculative sizing only.
9	GNTA	AVOID	4.0	$20M micro-cap ADR with -74% year and no revenue metrics; forecast reliability is low.
10	MDXH	AVOID	3.8	ROE -2440%, -80% YTD, only mid-timeframe forecast — too broken to trust the bounce call.
11	MLTX	AVOID	3.7	Weak fundamental_score 0.75, no earnings visibility; forecast magnitude too small vs. risk.
12	BAER	AVOID	3.5	$64M micro-cap with debtEq 7.81 and negative margins; too fragile for a swing.
13	BLNK	AVOID	3.2	Negative fundamental_score, profitMargin -52%, and forecast magnitudes not large enough to compensate.
14	IFRX	AVOID	3.0	bullish_prob=0 with -51% expected return — pool inclusion was fundamentals-driven, not signal.
15	STLD	AVOID	2.8	Weekly forecast -44% to -47% overwhelms the near-term small positives; don't chase +42% YTD.
16	NMM	AVOID	2.6	All timeframes at range top with -35% to -54% forecasts — classic don't-chase.
17	MTSI	AVOID	2.5	+120% year with weekly forecast -62%; multi-TF alignment is uniformly bearish.
18	HALO	AVOID	2.4	At 93-97% of range with -35% to -52% forecasts and targetUpside NEGATIVE (-7.3%).
19	PAYS	AVOID	2.2	+153% YTD, 87-99% of range, weekly forecast -71% — textbook blow-off setup, plus insider selling.

21	NTCT	AVOID	2.0	All timeframes negative (-8% to -25%) despite Zacks upgrade — model disagrees with sell-side.
22	GLW	AVOID	1.9	Weekly forecast -72%, +133% year — mega-cap crowded long that Kronos wants to fade hard.
23	HUM	AVOID	1.8	All forecasts negative, profitMargin 0.88%, targetUpside only 5.1%.
24	EZPW	AVOID	1.6	Weekly forecast crushing; 23.5% short float adds gamma risk against you.

29	PEPE-USD	AVOID	0.6	bullish_prob=0 with -44.6% expected return — no reason to own.
