⚔️ Adversarial Opposing Case: Why the VPG Bull Thesis Could Fail
Even with a 62/100 (C) score, VPG faces multiple-compression risk if 148.9x trailing P/E re-rate toward historical sector medians or if hyperscaler/enterprise customer concentration slows in upcoming 10-Q filings.
⚠️ Forensic Kill-Switch #1
Company executives have done more routine share selling than personal cash buying lately.
⚠️ Forensic Kill-Switch #2
Priced at 149x earnings—high expectations leave less room for a lukewarm quarter.
⚠️ Forensic Kill-Switch #3
Technical & Forensic Kill-Switch: A daily close below the 50D SMA ($65.13) or 200D SMA ($73.85) invalidates the momentum regime and cuts Target Base ($60.22) toward Bear Floor ($46.97).
