Today's pick · Highly Shorted Deep Rotation RSI & ConfMIRBUY NOW7.8 / 109/17/2026

MIR is the only name in this pool with a full multi-timeframe forecast tape attached, and the near-term read is unambiguously bullish: 1d Kronos probability = 1.0, near_term_bullish flag = 1, and the daily forecast stack is +17.51% short / +31.94% mid / +25.33% long off a current price of $15.81. Crucially, the setup is NOT extended — position_in_21bar_range is only 55.73% on the daily and 26.96% on the weekly, with a -6.62% daily drawdown and -19.46% weekly drawdown from highs. That is the textbook 'deep rotation with RSI reclaim' profile the screen is hunting: RSI has crossed back above 50 (50.79) while price is still in the lower half of the multi-week range. You are not chasing. The weekly forecast (-2.6% / -7.01% / -6.97%) is the honest wart — it is telling you the broader trend has not repaired yet — but the recent_21bar of -19.46% on the weekly plus the CFO buying 20,000 shares on 9/8 and Jefferies initiating at Buy on 9/4 both argue the reset is done. Insider open-market buys at these levels, combined with a fresh sell-side initiation, are two clean positive catalysts with zero offsetting negative headlines (no guidance cut, no dilution, no legal overhang). Fundamentals are the trickiest part: trailing PE of 179 is optically ugly, but fwd PE compresses to 23.73, PEG is a reasonable 1.25, EPS next Y is +22.45%, sales YoY +15.68%, analyst recom is 1.27 (Strong Buy) with 53.2% target upside, and short float of 15.31% gives a squeeze tailwind if the daily forecast plays out. ROE (1.49%) and profit margin (2.39%) are thin, so this is a growth-into-earnings story, not a value story — but that fits nuclear/radiation-detection Industrials where operating leverage is still ramping. Why today and not wait: price is mid-range on the daily and lower-third on the weekly, RSI just reclaimed 50, insider is buying, and the forecast tape says the next 21 bars are the strongest window. Waiting for a deeper pullback risks missing the Jefferies-catalyst move; the risk/reward from $15.81 to a $20+ mid-horizon target with a stop under $14.60 is >2:1.

Entry zone

$15.55 – $15.95 (scale in around current $15.81; add on any dip to the 21-bar mid ~$15.30)

Stop loss

$14.55 (below the 21-bar drawdown low and the weekly range floor; ~8% risk)

First target

$18.60 (aligned with 1d fc_short +17.51%)

Longer target

$20.85 – $21.30 (1d fc_mid +31.94%, also near pre-drawdown resistance)

Risks

Weekly forecast is negative across all horizons (-2.6% / -7.01% / -6.97%) — daily bounce could get sold into the broader downtrend
Trailing PE of 179.59 and profit margin of only 2.39% leave zero cushion if guidance slips
Short float 15.31% cuts both ways — accelerates upside on a squeeze but amplifies downside on any bad print
YTD performance -32.37% and 1yr -33.83% mean the stock is in a confirmed downtrend that a single Jefferies note may not reverse
Debt/Equity 0.68 with thin margins limits balance-sheet flexibility if rates stay elevated

Honorable mentions

PSIXHighest composite score (14.75), bullish_prob 1.0, cheapest valuation in the pool (PE 13.63 / fwd PE 10.27), ROE 40.07%, profit margin 10.03%, 74.1% target upside and expected_return_pct of 98.5% — but no multi-timeframe forecast tape was supplied, so it's a fundamentals-first alternative rather than a tape-confirmed one.

TMDXBullish_prob 1.0, clean profitability profile (ROE 36.28%, profit margin 22.69%, oper margin 12.21%), sales YoY +25.82%, RSI 52.51 not extended. Held back by a rich fwd PE 38.07 and modest 11.1% analyst upside, but the growth + short float 24.23% combo is a squeeze candidate.
