UWMC rose 13.86% on volume 1.17 times its recent average, a large move on unremarkable participation. Financials gained 2.06% the same day, well short of this, so the move was mostly specific to the company. Its next scheduled report is 21 days away, and the retrieved items only discuss whether the shares are cheap and note the price gain; neither states what drove the session.

KRMN rose 12.48% on 1.9 times average volume while Industrials gained 1.34%, so this was specific to the company rather than a sector move. Its next scheduled report is 21 days away. The retrieved coverage describes a rebound following a three-session slide but does not identify a cause.

KD rose 11.87% on 1.33 times average volume while Information Technology gained 1.29%, so the move was company-specific, and the shares remain 56.9% below their 52-week high. Its next scheduled report is 20 days away. The retrieved items include a contract announcement with Toyota Systems from the prior session, but none of them states what drove this move.

Z rose 11.05% on 3.42 times average volume, unusually heavy participation, while Real Estate gained 2.01%, so most of the move was company-specific. Zillow reports in about 20 days, so results are not the mechanism here. The items retrieved around the session concern analyst target changes and the price move itself and do not state a driver.

ZG rose 10.8% on 1.27 times average volume, moving with the class C line against a Real Estate sector that gained 2.01%. That places the move largely with the company's own re-rating rather than the sector, on ordinary volume. No earnings date is supplied for this share class, and the one retrieved item refers to Wall Street target cuts without identifying what moved the shares.

FMC fell 30.53% on 7.56 times average volume while its Materials sector rose 1.51%, and it closed at the bottom of its 52-week range. Coverage around the session reported that the company cut its Q3 2026 outlook amid weak demand and inventory pressures. Its next scheduled report is 14 days away, and the coverage does not establish how much of the fall the guidance cut accounts for.

MAN fell 15.82% on 3.26 times average volume while Industrials rose 1.34%, and it reported the same day. Coverage reported a Q3 revenue miss and a CEO transition, with some outlets also citing a weak fourth-quarter outlook. The retrieved items do not quantify how much of the 15.82% fall each of those accounts for.

HPE fell 7.1% on 1.46 times average volume while Information Technology gained 1.29%, so the move was company-specific. Coverage reported that Barclays cut the shares to Hold as part of a downgrade of hardware names. Its next scheduled report is 48 days away, so results are not the mechanism.

LSCC fell 6.88% on 1.6 times average volume against an Information Technology sector that rose 1.29%. Its next scheduled report is 18 days away, and it sits 31.0% below its 52-week high.

MTSI fell 6.84% on 1.84 times average volume while its sector rose 1.29%, so this was specific to the company on somewhat elevated participation. It is still up 7.8% over the month and reports in about 21 days. The retrieved coverage only reports the decline and does not state a cause.
Explanations are written from the figures shown — sector move, volume against average, earnings proximity — and from headlines published around this session, which are linked where one is cited. A cause is only asserted with a source you can open and check; a move with no relevant coverage is reported as unexplained rather than guessed at.
3 · Six picks per strategy
Value
Profitable, moderately levered companies ranked on a composite of their valuation multiples. Each name is argued on its own ratios rather than on the screen alone.
These are current-snapshot ratios with no point-in-time history behind them, so the screen has not been tested through a cycle.

Information Technology and Health Care each contribute two names; the candidate list is concentrated in those two sectors.
Contrarian
Recent weakness set against a much stronger longer-run record, where the short and long horizons disagree. Deep drawdowns from the 52-week high are the other route in.

Information Technology contributes two names; the remaining four are spread across Materials, Communication Services, Health Care and Industrials.
Candidates for each strategy are screened in the database — liquidity, drawdown, multi-horizon returns — and the model chooses six from that list and explains each from its own numbers. It cannot pick a stock the screen did not offer. Screening tool over your own data, not investment advice.
The value shortlist is screened on reported fundamentals from 2026-10-15 — profitability, return on equity and leverage as gates, then a composite of P/E, P/B, P/S and EV/EBITDA — covering 988 companies. These are current-snapshot ratios with no point-in-time history behind them, so the screen has not been tested through a cycle.
