Intuit (INTU) offers the cleanest combination of fundamentals, forecast tape, and news backdrop in the pool. On fundamentals it's the sweet spot of GARP: fwdPe 11.87, PEG 0.78, profit margin 21.9%, ROE 22.5%, salesYoY 15.1%, epsNextY 15.0%, recom 1.89, targetUpside 35.7% — all while the stock is down 50.9% YTD and 57.3% over the year, meaning most of the froth is gone. That's a rare setup: high-quality compounder trading like a broken growth stock. The multi-timeframe tape is what tips this to #1. Daily and weekly forecasts are enormous and stacked: 1d fc_short/mid/long +13.3% / +41.3% / +88.1%, and 1wk +7.2% / +37.9% / +91.1%. Near_term_bullish is 1.0 and bullish_prob 1.0. Crucially, price is NOT extended — 1d pos_in_21bar_range 79.2% (fine), 1wk 36.6% (mid-range), and dd_from_21bar_high is -3.3% on daily but -23.2% on weekly. That's the textbook 'daily basing after a weekly drawdown' pattern the screen was built for. The 1h forecasts are mildly negative (-0.2/-5.2/-6.9%) — a small chop opportunity to add on a dip rather than a reason to pass. News is a non-issue to mildly positive: the 8/6 Citrin Cooperman partnership expanding Intuit Enterprise Suite is a small positive; there is no guidance cut, legal action, or dilution in the recent tape. Contrast with APP (weekly forecast −22/−39/−67% after a 20% plunge — a landmine), FUTU (DOJ probe, HK SFC asset freeze), SRAD (guidance cut, UBS downgrade), FOUR (soft FY outlook), NRG (weekly fc −22/−53%), and HNRG (weekly fc −33/−54%). CALX and BILI are strong runners-up but neither combines INTU's fundamental quality with a weekly forecast of nearly +90%. Why buy TODAY vs. wait: the 1d structure is already turning up from a deep weekly drawdown, price sits mid-to-upper daily range but only 36% of weekly range, and the analyst mean (1.89) hasn't caught up to the forecast tape. Waiting for a further 1h dip is reasonable but the daily setup is live now.

- Weekly recent_21bar_pct is -22.1% — the stock is still in a broader downtrend and one bad tape day can retest lows; stop discipline is critical
- fwdPe 11.87 is low FOR INTU but the multiple has compressed for a reason — any hint of consumer/small-biz TurboTax or QuickBooks weakness re-rates it lower
- 1h forecasts are negative (-0.2/-5.2/-6.9%), so near-term entry could be underwater for a few sessions before the daily thesis engages
- Broader tech tape risk: ORCL headline flagged 'AI hollowing out tech jobs / 20-year high layoffs' — sector sentiment is fragile
- Debt/Eq 0.33 is fine but shortFloat 5.91% and perfYear -57.3% signal there is still real supply overhead from trapped longs

| 6 | MLCO | BUY NOW | 7.0 | PEG 0.35, fwdPe 8.1, 1wk fc +36/+60%, near_term 0.8, positive 'worst is behind us' narrative. |
| 7 | ALNY | BUY PULLBACK | 6.7 | Massive 4h/1d forecasts (+42-70%) and PEG 0.29 but Truist pessimistic call is a headwind. |
| 8 | ONON | BUY PULLBACK | 6.5 | Near_term 1.0, Evercore raised PT to $46, but earnings 8/11 = event risk before entry. |
| 9 | KVYO | BUY PULLBACK | 6.2 | Citi raised PT to $36, forecast +40% long on 1d/4h, but PE 784 and shortFloat 22% are landmines. |
| 10 | VERX | BUY PULLBACK | 6.0 | 4h fc +40/+38/+32%, 1d fc +59% long, but PE 555 and margin 0.45% show quality is weak. |
| 11 | BIRK | BUY PULLBACK | 5.9 | Near_term 1.0, sensible fwdPe 13.67, but board exit headline and 20% short float caution. |
| 12 | STEP | BUY PULLBACK | 5.8 | Up 15% post-earnings, UBS raised PT to $69, but negative operMargin -54% is a real quality flag. |
| 13 | FICO | BUY PULLBACK | 5.7 | 1d fc +42% long, PEG 0.68, 1wk pos only 34% of range — but 4h pos 0% shows knife still falling. |

| 18 | CRK | BUY PULLBACK | 5.0 | Big 4h/1d fc (+80/+35% long) and near_term 1.0, but 1wk down 42% and recom 2.76 is soft. |

| 20 | KKR | WAIT | 4.6 | Weekly at 94% of range with weak 1wk forecasts (-1.7/-3.4%); bullish_prob only 0.4. |
| 21 | SE | WAIT | 4.4 | At 100% of range across all TFs, bullish_prob 0, PEG 1.13, 4h fc -13.5% — chased. |

| 23 | HNRG | WAIT | 4.0 | 1d fc +23% but 1wk fc -33/-54% is a huge red flag; small cap ($696M). |

| 25 | APP | AVOID | 3.7 | Weekly forecast -22/-39/-67% after 20% plunge on Q2 — the tape has broken. |

| 30 | FUTU | AVOID | 2.4 | DOJ probe, class actions, HK SFC froze HK$125M client assets — screen means nothing here. |
