Does a stronger signal actually pay more? Every program has a strength dial — a bigger sentiment flip, a higher earnings-setup score, a more extreme crowd — and the label implies more conviction. This bands each program's settled record into moderate vs strong and checks whether the strong band out-earns the moderate one (excess return over SPY). If it doesn't, the strength label is theater. Measured on the three per-name programs: Flip Lab, Earnings Mood, Crowd Divergence.
