It was a rough week for risk, and Orbit’s board wore it. Seven days ago, 58% of the names Orbit had screened sat above their entry, with a +5.7% median and a +6.6% mean — the kind of spread where the upper tail does the heavy lifting. That picture has now inverted: just 28% of the board remains above entry, the median has flipped to -4.5%, and the mean sits at -3.4%.

The damage came from a two-day, growth-to-value flush. Broadcom’s AI-chip guidance miss on Wednesday repriced the entire semiconductor and AI-infrastructure complex, and Friday’s hot May payrolls print (172,000 jobs versus roughly 85,000 expected) slammed the door on near-term rate cuts — a direct hit to the high-beta, long-duration names that dominate Orbit’s board. KEEL held up best, still +45.3% since screened, but even it gave back ground from last week’s +60.9%. The weakest name now sits at -49.2%, against -21.5% a week ago. This was a regime stress test — the engine’s edge shows in how the top cohort holds up through it, not just on green weeks.

What Orbit is

Orbit is Luna3.ai’s AI-augmented research engine. It blends twelve algorithmic signals with a gradient-boosted machine-learning model, then layers an agentic LLM analyst on top that reads each top pick’s filings and writes a daily thesis tagged with a conviction score and a catalyst-proximity read. Entry price and date freeze the moment a name clears the screen, so what you see below is the actual setup Orbit flagged in real time — not a back-edited record.

The scorecard

Across every screened name, returns since screened span +45.3% at the top to -49.2% at the bottom.

The aggregate read is straightforward. 28% of names on Orbit’s board are above their screened entry, the median return is -4.5%, and the mean is -3.4% — the mean sitting above the median, a sign the surviving winners are still doing real work against a broadly red tape. Not every screen works, and after this week a clear majority of the cohort sits below where Orbit first flagged it.

The top 20% since screened

What changed since last week

7 of last week’s top ten held their place in the cohort — KEEL, ASPI, STUB, RCAT, BTDR, ONDS, ERAS — but every one gave back ground, and all printed red past-week moves. Ondas was the hardest hit at -21.3% on the week, its since-screened gain compressing to +13.2%, with ASPI, RCAT and KEEL close behind. The three names that climbed into the top 20% tell the rotation story: Almonty Industries (ALOY, +28.3% on the week), Cardinal Infrastructure Group Inc. (CDNL, +14.2% on the week), A10 Networks, Inc. (ATEN, +4.5% on the week) were the only green past-week movers on the board — critical minerals, infrastructure and networking sidestepping the AI-capex repricing that hammered the compute and defense leaders. CLSK, KTOS, JOBY dropped out of the cohort entirely. KEEL keeps the top spot at +45.3% since screened, though its cushion is roughly 16 points thinner than a week ago.

How to read the board

Orbit’s screen has two parts: a fundamental and quant track screen, and a technical pre-rally screen. The “Source” column tells you which layer first surfaced each name. Tier 1, 2 and 3 are the top conviction layer — names that cleared both parts of the screen and earned an agentic catalyst review on top, with Tier 1 the highest conviction. The “Track H” tag means Orbit’s H fundamental track caught the name and the technical pattern confirmed it, without the agent review the tiers receive. “Agent pick” is a name surfaced directly by the LLM analyst.
