Today's pick · ContrarianSPROBUY NOW8.6 / 107/28/2026

SPRO is the highest-conviction contrarian bounce here: a rare combination of the best fundamental profile in the pool (fundamental_score 8, PE 4.84, fwdPe 1.76, ROE 35.12, profit margin +27.82%) with a textbook oversold technical setup (RSI 20.72, position_in_21bar_range 0% on 1h/4h/1d, drawdown -30.6% over 14d) AND a concrete positive catalyst — the July 15 Innventure/IBI355 licensing deal worth up to $1.1B, which materially reprices the company against its $68M market cap. The multi-timeframe forecast strongly supports a bounce: 1h fc_mid +119.9%, 4h fc_mid +109.8%, and 1d fc_mid +113.6% / fc_long +86.5%. Three of four timeframes are pointing sharply up, and near_term_bullish is 0.4 only because the 1wk short leg is soft (-11.2%) — that's the trailing weekly bar reflecting the drop, not a broken trend, since fc_long weekly is only -0.29% (essentially flat). The stock sits at the absolute bottom of its 21-bar range on the three faster timeframes, which is exactly the exhausted-selling profile the lens is looking for — not chasing an already-bouncing name. Against peers, SPRO wins on quality: EVH just got a Citi downgrade and is 'nosediving,' LEGN's CEO abruptly resigned Friday, LBRT and MBLY got price-target cuts, ACI got downgraded, METC has a negative Q2 warning, and RPD has NEGATIVE target upside (-16.3%). SPIR and DARE are the cleanest technical alternatives but neither has SPRO's valuation, profitability, or a fresh $1B+ catalyst. The recom of 3 is the only yellow flag, but the 239% target upside from sell-side and the licensing revenue reset arguably haven't been repriced yet. Buying today makes sense because the RSI is at 20.7, position in range is zero, and the licensing catalyst is only ~2 weeks old — waiting risks missing the initial mean-reversion move. This is asymmetric: cheap on fundamentals, oversold on technicals, catalyst-supported on news.

Entry zone

$1.14–$1.20 (scale in near current $1.16; add on any push toward $1.10 without a fundamental catalyst change)

Stop loss

$0.98 (below the 4h/1d 21-bar low ~-49% zone; roughly 15% below entry)

First target

$1.55 (approx +33%, aligns with 1d fc_short cluster and prior consolidation shelf)

Longer target

$2.20–$2.45 (1d fc_mid +113% / fc_long +86% zone; also matches partial retrace toward analyst target implied by 239% upside)

Risks

1wk forecast is soft (fc_short -11.2%, fc_mid -4.3%) — a weekly-timeframe seller could keep pressure on before the bounce materializes
Small cap ($68.3M) with only 14.6% institutional ownership → thin liquidity and gap risk
Analyst recom is 3 (Hold) despite great fundamentals, suggesting sell-side skepticism about durability of the profitability profile
SPRO's positive profit margin is largely tied to milestone/licensing accounting; if IBI355 diligence stumbles, the fundamental thesis compresses fast
Short float 4.94% is modest so a short squeeze tailwind is limited — this needs organic buyers

Honorable mentions

SPIRCleanest multi-TF alignment (all four fc_mid/fc_long positive: 1h +71%, 4h +31%, 1d +20% long, 1wk +20% long), ROE 100.58, PE 7.11, positive recent catalyst (10-satellite launch, SeekingAlpha growth thesis). Position 0–3% in range on the fast TFs. Only reason it's #2: forecast magnitude smaller than SPRO's and no fresh billion-dollar deal.

DAREnear_term_bullish 1.0 with every single TF pointing up (1h fc_short +99.5%, 4h +44%, 1d +48%, 1wk long +225%), targetUpsidePct 632.6, positive product-launch narrative. Held back by tiny $19.8M cap, debt/eq 9.84, and grossly negative margins — pure speculative bounce, not a quality name like SPRO.

#	Symbol	Verdict	Score	Read
1	SPRO	BUY NOW	8.6	Fund score 8, PE 4.84, RSI 20.7, position 0% in range, 1d fc_mid +113%, plus fresh $1.1B Innventure licensing catalyst.
2	SPIR	BUY NOW	7.8	All four TFs bullish, ROE 100.58, PE 7.11, satellite-launch catalyst, position ~0–3% in range.
3	DARE	BUY NOW	7.2	Every TF forecast positive, near_term_bullish 1.0, 632% target upside — speculative but clean signal.
4	INV	BUY NOW	6.9	1h fc_short +97.8%, 4h +74%, all TFs positive, position 3–11% in range — but PS 77.88 makes it very speculative.
5	XCH	BUY NOW	6.6	1d fc_mid +68%, fc_long +82%, near_term 1.0, deep drawdown -36.5% on 1d — thin float risk.
6	TEM	BUY NOW	6.5	All four TFs positive, near_term 1.0, Cathie Wood buying $8.7M, 1d fc_mid +54.9%.
7	CRML	BUY PULLBACK	6.2	1h fc_short +92%, 4h +71%; rare earth/China narrative live, but 'worst month in over a year' headline says knife still falling.
8	AMZE	BUY PULLBACK	6.0	1d fc_short/mid/long all +208%, NYSE compliance regained, but 1h forecasts -44 to -49% suggest wait for a stable base.
9	GRRR	BUY PULLBACK	5.9	1h fc_long +59%, 4h +18%, $232M financing catalyst — dilution from convertibles is offset by execution scale-up.
10	SST	BUY PULLBACK	5.8	1d fc_mid +142.8%, 1wk fc_long +473%, but fund score 0 and ROE -372.94 — pure small-cap swing.
11	CDZI	BUY PULLBACK	5.6	1h/4h/1d forecasts +48/62/56% mid, BLM right-of-way + solar MoU catalysts, but 1wk fc all negative.
12	QS	WAIT	5.4	1d fc_mid +79%, 4h +64% — but just hit 52-week low and TD Cowen cut PT to $6.
13	RUN	WAIT	5.3	1h/4h/1d all positive but 1wk fc flat at -7.76% across all horizons; solar policy overhang.
14	MBLY	WAIT	5.2	Piper upgrade offsets Evercore PT cut; 1wk fc_short -42% is a red flag against the bounce.
15	AKTX	WAIT	5.0	1d fc_mid +102.8% and Maxim upgrade, but 1wk forecasts show -100% collapse — data anomaly worth waiting through.
16	INTZ	WAIT	4.9	1wk fc_short +131.9% and analyst day momentum, but 1h forecast only +3.2% short — the immediate setup is weak.
17	OSMO-USD	WAIT	4.8	1wk fc_long +121% but 1d only +5% long — crypto liquidity/volatility risk.
18	ACI	WAIT	4.7	Every TF forecast positive but Citi downgrade + PE 152 + president resignation makes this a bad top-of-book pick.
19	NTLA	WAIT	4.5	1h fc_short +55% but weekly forecasts negative and Wolfe just downgraded to Underperform.
20	ACDC	WAIT	4.4	1h fc_mid +91% but recom 3.75 (sell-side skeptical), 'unpopular stocks' coverage.
21	STX-USD	WAIT	4.2	1wk fc_long -40%, only intraday TFs constructive.
22	SAFE-USD	WAIT	4.0	1h fc_long +38.5% but 1wk fc_mid -32%; muddled crypto signal.
23	FAI-USD	WAIT	3.6	Only 1d TF, fc_short/mid negative, fc_long +1.5% — no confluence.
24	LBRT	WAIT	3.5	1wk forecasts all negative, Stifel cut PT, margin compression flagged in Q2 review.
25	METC	AVOID	3.2	Zacks flagging possible negative Q2 print, Goldman cut PT to $13, weekly fc_short -4.5%.

27	LNAI	AVOID	2.5	1wk fc all -100%, fund score -2.5, PS 505, profit margin -612,568%.
28	RPD	AVOID	2.4	targetUpsidePct -16.3% (sell-side sees downside), all near-term forecasts negative, Morgan Stanley cautious ahead of earnings.
29	LEGN	AVOID	2.2	CEO abruptly stepped down 7/27 causing 15% plunge; broken thesis regardless of forecast.
30	EVH	AVOID	1.8	Citi downgrade to Neutral, 'nosediving' headline, 1h/1d fc_short both negative — active landmine.
