0xa0f2c22b…658353880xa0f2c22b8e03e02809c27736e8b4804665835388Factors that more than one brain named, and how each brain currently reads its own. Where the readings pull apart is where a shared assumption is doing different work in different companies.
A factor appears here when two or more brains wrote down the same label. Nothing is inferred: there is no similarity scoring and no model deciding that two differently-worded risks are really the same one. If a factor is grouped, it is because the brains used the same words, and you can confirm it by opening both.
A status describes one brain’s relationship to its own thesis — “evidence runs against the thesis” means that brain’s recent evidence undercuts what that brain concluded about that company. It is not a comparison between the companies, and it is not a view on any share price.
3 shared factors have at least one brain whose evidence currently runs against its thesis. Those are listed first.
13 factors, most divergent first.
