Today's pick · Low Float Bullish Consensus Deep RotationHURNBUY NOW8.4 / 107/7/2026

Huron Consulting (HURN) is the cleanest intersection of quality fundamentals and confirming multi-timeframe tape in this pool. Fundamentals are institutional-grade for a low-float name: PE 17.08, fwdPe 9.79, PEG 1.05, ROE 23.27, profitMargin 5.94 with 11.79% sales YoY growth, analyst recom of 1.0 (unanimous strong buy) and a 84.2% target upside — matched with a fundamental_score of 7 and bullish_prob of 1.0. The stock is down 42% YTD and 28% over the past year, so this is a beaten-down high-quality name, not a chase. The forecast tape confirms across horizons. The 1d shows fc_short +18.88%, fc_mid +28.96%, fc_long +27.45% with the daily sitting at pos_in_21bar_range 48.33% and dd_from_21bar_high −9.53% — mid-range, not extended. The 1wk shows a deep discount (pos_in_21bar_range 17.41%, dd −30.95%) with fc_mid +16.44 / fc_long +23.14. The 4h and 1h forecasts show a short-term dip (fc_short −5.03% / −2.26%) but bigger mid/long targets (4h fc_mid +50.48, fc_long +37.8), which is exactly the kind of pattern you want: intraday tapes are extended (pos 100 on 1h/4h) but higher-timeframe positioning is favorable, so a small pullback into the 96–98 zone is the ideal entry. News is neutral-to-positive: Zacks flagged a 7.1% strength move in late June, and the only negative — a director selling ~1,800 shares — is immaterial relative to the setup. There's no dilution, no guidance cut, no legal overhang. Compared to DCBO (better fundamentals but bearish fc_short across 1h/4h/1d and pos 84–87 on 4h/1d, so it's chase-y), TASK (recom is only 2.86 = hold, and 1h pos 100), and GPI (great setup but just dropped out of the Russell Growth indices — a real headwind), HURN is the most balanced buy today. Why TODAY: the daily is only ~9.5% off highs but weekly is 31% off highs — you're buying strength inside a still-discounted swing structure with a strong buy consensus and 84% analyst upside. Waiting for a bigger pullback risks missing the fc_short_1d of +18.88% move that the model is projecting.

Entry zone

$96.50–$100.50 (accumulate on intraday pullback toward the 4h VWAP; add on any dip to the $95 area, which is roughly the 1d midpoint)

Stop loss

$89.90 (just below the 21-bar daily low at −9.53% drawdown; a close below invalidates the mean-reversion thesis)

First target

$115 (aligns with 1d fc_mid ~+15% conservative haircut off +28.96%)

Longer target

$128–$135 (1wk fc_long +23.14% and consensus target upside of +84%; scale out into strength)

Risks

1h/4h are pinned at pos_in_21bar_range 100% with negative fc_short (−2.26% / −5.03%) — a 3–5% intraday flush is the base case before continuation
debtEq of 2.23 is elevated for a consulting business; interest-rate shocks or a services slowdown hit here first
Profit margin is thin at 5.94% and gross margin only 29.99% — any revenue softness compresses EPS quickly
Stock is down 42% YTD, meaning there is a persistent seller/overhang; the recent director sale is small but reinforces that insiders aren't buying yet
1wk fc_short is −2.84% — the weekly model still expects one more leg down before the mid/long-term uptrend resumes

Honorable mentions

GPIGroup 1 Automotive: fundamental_score 6.25, PE 11.36, PEG 0.71, fwdPe 6.25, recom 1.6, ROE 11.05, bullish_prob 1.0, near_term_bullish 1.0. 1d fc_short +21.39 / fc_mid +26.89 with pos 24.49 (mid-lower range) and 1wk pos 12.13 = deep discount. Only knock: just dropped from Russell Growth indices, which is a mechanical headwind.

TASKTaskUs: cheapest name in the pool (PE 4.56, fwdPe 3.37), ROE 26.52, profitMargin 8.7. Forecasts are enormous (1d fc_short +67.94, 1wk fc_long +200.07) with 1wk pos 17.1. Held back by recom 2.86 (hold, not buy), debtEq 1.99, and 1h at pos 100 — buy on any pullback under $5.00.

#	Symbol	Verdict	Score	Read
1	HURN	BUY NOW	8.4	Best fundamentals + tape combo: PE 17, fwdPe 9.79, recom 1.0, 1d fc_mid +28.96, weekly pos 17% off highs — quality mean-reversion.
2	GPI	BUY NOW	7.8	Cheap auto retailer (fwdPe 6.25, PEG 0.71) with 1d fc_short +21.39 and 1wk pos 12.13; only headwind is Russell Growth removal.
3	TASK	BUY PULLBACK	7.4	Deep value (fwdPe 3.37) with massive 1wk fc_long +200% and pos 17.1, but recom 2.86 (hold) and 1h pos 100 — wait for dip.
4	DCBO	BUY PULLBACK	7.2	Top fund score (8), PEG 0.45, ROE 132, but 1h/4h/1d fc_short all negative and pos 84–87 — chasing risk, buy sub-$17.50.
5	IDN	BUY PULLBACK	6.4	Russell 2000/3000 inclusion catalyst, 4h fc_mid +47.42 and 1wk pos 3.64 (deeply discounted); weekly fc_short/mid weak.
6	AZO	BUY PULLBACK	6.2	Defensive compounder now down −8% off highs across all TFs, recom 1.45, but −6% one-day drop needs to stabilize.
7	SHOE	BUY PULLBACK	5.9	PE 10.9, fwdPe 8, pos 0 on 1wk (max discount) with 1d fc_mid +27.26; recom 2.33 caps enthusiasm.
8	LEU	BUY PULLBACK	5.6	S&P SmallCap 600 inclusion catalyst July 14, but PE 57.71/fwdPe 64.1 stretched and fund_score −1.5.
9	LBRDA	WAIT	5.3	1wk pos 8.56 with fc_long +195.99 is compelling but −74% sales YoY and profit margin −1050% is scary.
10	GLMD	WAIT	4.9	Fresh U.S. patent notice + Colospan restructure are positives, but 1wk fc_short +373% is a single-bar outlier — speculative.
11	GRCE	WAIT	4.8	Q4 EPS beat and RSI 57.49 rebound, but 1h fc_short −6.8 / fc_mid −10.99 says short-term top.
12	VWAV	WAIT	4.6	Just doubled on Meteor Aerospace acquisition; forecasts strong but already extended after the double.
13	NXL	WAIT	4.4	1d fc_long +122.76 and clinical catalysts, but grossMargin −664% and operMargin −3084% is untenable.
14	ANNA	WAIT	4.3	Only real-profit low-float energy name (17.43% margin, 1533% sales growth) but 1wk fc_short −3.83 and no recom.
15	WKSP	WAIT	4.1	Unusual volume + 2-year single-day best, but 1h fc_short −10.84 and profit margin −120% — momentum play, not investment.
16	SAGT	WAIT	4.0	PE 7.59 and 57% sales growth are unusual for micro-cap; but bullish_prob null and 4h pos 1.06 — no confirmation.
17	QNTM	WAIT	3.9	1wk fc_long +1415% is a model outlier; ROE −984% and no revenue — pure lottery ticket.
18	TRIB	WAIT	3.8	Killed standby equity purchase (positive) and CGM+ study positive; but 1d dd −42% and salesYoY −13% show broken structure.
19	AMIX	AVOID	3.5	1-for-21 reverse split on June 24 is a major red flag; 1wk fc_short −100 confirms distress.
20	USBC	WAIT	3.5	1wk fc_long +11060% is an obvious outlier; near_term_bullish 0.0 and ROE −247% — story stock only.
21	TTEC	WAIT	3.4	AI claims platform narrative and fwdPe 1.73, but debtEq 11.65, shortFloat 32.61%, recom 2.5 = compressed short squeeze bet.
22	AGRZ	WAIT	3.3	RSI 62.49 and 1d fc_mid +30 look ok, but bullish_prob null and no fundamentals — thin conviction.
23	BCG	WAIT	3.2	PE 13, ROE 17, and M&A commentary, but pos 0 across all timeframes and 1h/4h fc_short flat — needs a base.
24	AIM	AVOID	2.5	shortFloat 41.67%, profitMargin −14123%, operMargin −10072% — DURIPANC readout not until Dec 2026; too far out.
25	PRSO	AVOID	2.4	Just signed $25M common stock purchase agreement with Roth — pure dilution, kills the setup.
26	BIAF	AVOID	2.3	Just priced $3.2M dilutive offering at $0.80 on June 17; RSI 27 oversold but overhang is real.
27	FABC	AVOID	2.2	Filed prospectus for 187.2M share resale on July 2 — catastrophic overhang; salesYoY −100%.
28	PAPL	AVOID	2.1	fwdPe 52.36 despite ROE −203, operMargin −142%, salesYoY −7% — no thesis remains.
29	NCPL	AVOID	2.0	profitMargin −3804%, 1wk fc_short +2596% is a model breakdown, not a signal.
30	RBNE	AVOID	1.9	−77% YTD, −95% year, RSI 26.5 falling knife; bullish_prob null and no recom.
