Rule applied: Risk-Off (scores Γ 0.65) needs two risk signals: VIX above 30, 10Y yield up more than 100 bps over 20 sessions, NASDAQ more than 5 percentage points behind the S&P 500 over its last 20 closes. Neutral (Γ 0.85) needs one risk signal or two neutral ones: VIX above 20, yield up more than 50 bps, NASDAQ more than 2 percentage points behind. Otherwise Risk-On (Γ 1.00). A missing signal doesn't vote.

Methodology change after the Wed Oct 28 close: Revenue growth is now true year-over-year (each quarter against the same quarter a year earlier), with SEC filings filling quarters Yahoo Finance lacks, and each company's news is scored on its own feed. Earlier colours rested on a 2-quarter calculation; colour changes from this date reflect the fix, not a market move.
Colours are based on the latest session's reading only; multi-day confirmation starts once a few sessions of history are stored.
About this dashboard
A signal dashboard tracking the data center infrastructure buildout β cooling, networking, optical, compute assembly, and colocation β identifying which part of the buildout is currently the most constrained.
π΄ Hot / Bottleneck
Current dominant constraint. Supply cannot meet demand.
π Emerging
Building momentum toward a bottleneck, or price ahead of fundamentals.
Quarterly financials are the latest reported quarter and can be several months old Β· Not financial advice Β· Always do your own research

How to read this dashboardmethodology
βΎ
What the colors mean
Red β current bottleneck
All three signal categories agree. This sub-layer is the dominant constraint right now.
Orange β emerging or hype warning
Building momentum toward a bottleneck, or price action is outrunning the fundamentals.
Green β neutral / healthy
Stable activity, no constraint pressure.
Blue β cooling
Previously hot sub-layer, constraint easing.
Note on Cooling: this sub-layer is currently a single ticker (VRT). Its score is
that company's own score directly β market-cap weighting degenerates correctly to N=1, and the
Red reality check (which needs 2+ companies) does not apply here.
Note on the capex strip above: hyperscaler capex direction is a display overlay
only β it does not feed into any sub-layer's score or weighting.

Fundamental override: if revenue growth is decelerating, a sub-layer cannot be Red regardless of price momentum.
