DICK'S Sporting Goods is the cleanest multi-timeframe contrarian bounce setup in this pool. Every single timeframe forecasts up: 1h fc_mid/long +58.57%/+58.59%, 4h +5.81%/+51.01%/+57.96%, 1d +58.78%/+54.37%/+51.81%, and even 1wk stays constructive at +25.55%/+36.54%/+25.82%. That is the rare 4-of-4 alignment the lens is built to find, with bullish_prob at 1.0 and near_term_bullish at 1.0. The drawdown looks like exhausted selling, not a broken trend. RSI is 23.95 (deeply oversold), the 1d position in 21-bar range is 13.02% and the 1wk is 0.87% — flushed, not fresh-lows-and-crashing. Fundamentals give this a real floor unlike the penny names: fwdPe 9.96 (cheapest quality name in the list), PEG 1.42, ROE 18.47, profitMargin 3.97, salesYoY +53.54%, instOwn 78.13%, analyst targetUpsidePct +22.2%. A large-cap Consumer Cyclical trading at sub-10 forward earnings with 53% sales growth and a maintained core business is a textbook 'baby with bathwater' post-earnings washout. Headlines confirm the setup rather than undercut it. SeekingAlpha (Aug 30): 'A 31% Selloff Was Too Much.' Insider Monkey (Aug 29): 'Foot Locker is Hurting, But the Core Business Holds Up.' No dilution filings, no legal action, no short-seller report — the pain is sentiment/guidance-driven, and the tape is starting to stabilize (1h recent_21bar +4.85%, dd_from_21bar_high only -0.35% on the 1h). Why TODAY vs. waiting: the 1h is already turning (pos_in_range 92.91%, fc_mid/long both +58%+) — that means intraday buyers are lifting the offer while the daily/weekly are still deeply oversold. Waiting for a pullback risks missing the reflex bounce, and the 4-TF forecast agreement is the highest-quality edge in the entire candidate pool. Compare to IESC (1wk fc_long -69.51%) or LIF (1wk fc_mid -36%) — DKS is the only name where the LONG-horizon weekly forecast is still strongly positive.
- Post-earnings guidance overhang: DKS just took a -32% 1d and -39% 1wk hit — if a second shoe drops (comp guide cut, Foot Locker integration write-down) it can retest lows.
- Consumer Cyclical macro risk — shortFloat 9.87% shows meaningful bear positioning; a weak retail print from a peer could re-ignite selling.
- Debt/Equity 1.39 is elevated for a retailer; higher-for-longer rates pressure the multiple even at fwdPe 9.96.
- 1wk pos_in_21bar_range at 0.87% means the higher-timeframe trend is not yet confirmed up — this is a counter-trend trade, not a trend continuation.
- Analyst recom is only 2.1 (not a strong buy consensus) and targetUpsidePct is a modest 22.2%, so upside is capped vs. more speculative names in the pool.
| # | Symbol | Verdict | Score | Read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | DKS | BUY NOW | 9.0 | 4-of-4 timeframe bullish alignment, RSI 23.95, fwdPe 9.96, positive headline flow — cleanest oversold bounce in the list. |
| 2 | AMRC | BUY NOW | 7.9 | Cheap PEG 0.32, insider buying headline, 4h/1d/1wk all bullish, +94% analyst upside. |
| 3 | AAON | BUY NOW | 7.6 | Best fundamentals (score 7.25), oversold RSI 30.84, 1d fc mid/long +24/+25, position 3.2% of 21-bar range. |
| 4 | LIF | BUY NOW | 7.1 | 4h all positive +18/+32/+35, 1d +11/+37.7, Citi/UBS maintain Buy, ROE 30 — 1wk fc negative is the only knock. |
| 5 | AVAV | BUY PULLBACK | 6.9 | NASA Mars contract + Greece JV catalysts, 1d fc +47.96/+65.42/+35.72, but 1h fc flat suggests waiting for a pullback. |
| 6 | IESC | BUY PULLBACK | 6.2 | Elite fundamentals and Cramer endorsement, but -60% drawdown plus 1wk fc_long -69.51% flags broken-trend risk. |
| 7 | UTI | BUY PULLBACK | 5.9 | Oversold RSI 25.29, recom 1.0, targetUpside +100%, but 1wk fc_long -32% and pos_in_range 0 shows no stabilization yet. |
| 8 | KTOS | BUY PULLBACK | 5.6 | Strong 4h/1d forecasts and defense narrative, but 4h pos_in_range 62.79 means the easy bounce already happened. |
| 9 | LTRN | WAIT | 5.0 | 1d/1wk forecasts strong (+48/+72/+79 and +42/+96/+112) but no shorter-TF confirmation, tiny $26M cap. |
| 10 | TSSI | WAIT | 4.8 | 4h fc_long -13.24 and 1wk all negative undercut the 1d bounce thesis. |
| 11 | NXTC | WAIT | 4.6 | 1d already ripped +38.41% recently and fc_short -4.69 — bounce may have front-run itself. |
| 12 | DCGO | WAIT | 4.4 | Massive forecasts (+465% on 1wk long) but $0.40 penny with -32% salesYoY and profitMargin -65%; lottery ticket. |
| 13 | GNTA | WAIT | 4.0 | $1 stock, 1d fc +90/+99/+100 but 4h fc mid/long near zero; needs confirmation. |
| 14 | JTO-USD | WAIT | 3.8 | Only 1h TF available, near_term_bullish just 0.2, coin headline flags bearish tape. |
| 15 | ZENA | WAIT | 3.6 | 4h pos_in_range 100% — at the top of the range, chasing risk despite bullish forecasts. |
| 16 | SHMD | AVOID | 3.0 | Company cut EBITDA margin outlook on Aug 27; 1wk fc_short -11.89, fundamental_score -2.5. |
| 17 | QNTM | AVOID | 2.5 | Only 1wk TF available and forecasts are all -17.08%; setup contradicts the lens. |
| 18 | SER | AVOID | 2.0 | Aug 24 prospectus for up to 12.5M share offering = fresh dilution; 4h fc_mid/long negative. |
