Tracked names — indirect reads

From the 19-stock weekly scan — supplier, rival, commodity, or policy reads the direct tagger missed.

DALdown	down moderate	accumulation	Iran-war oil/Hormuz shock lifts jet-fuel costs and tightens supply, a clear cost headwind; Mideast route disruption adds operational risk. Mid-week deal-hope crude selloff partly offsets, but fuel-cost weight dominates.
MUup	up moderate	accumulation	Multiple memory-specific stories align bullishly: tight DRAM supply, rising memory costs, ~100% utilization, surging AI memory demand, and Samsung supply risk. No direct MU headline, but the channel read is clearly positive for pricing.
CATmixed	mixed small	accumulation	No direct CAT hit. Faint offsetting indirect reads: datacenter power/cooling demand and tariff-court relief mildly positive; higher-for-longer rates and no mining/construction demand catalyst mildly negative. Nets near-flat.
CEGup	up small	accumulation	No direct CEG story, but an accumulation of AI data-center power-demand items (AEP capex hike, Hut 8 lease, IREN 5GW, Anthropic/SpaceX gigawatt compute, cooling demand) is a mild tailwind for merchant nuclear generators.
CMGdown	down small	accumulation	No direct CMG story. Soft restaurant peers (Shake Shack, McDonald's), beef-cost signals (Tyson, Brazil exports), and weakening consumer (record-low sentiment, record card debt) accumulate to a modest negative demand/cost lean.
DEmixed	mixed small	accumulation	Biofuel blending rules aid farm demand (positive), but higher-for-longer rates pressure equipment financing and China ag-tariff friction weighs. No direct Deere news; weak offsetting indirect reads.
FDXdown	down small	accumulation	Jet-fuel squeeze from Iran war (Chevron warnings, refiners scrambling) is a direct FedEx Express cost headwind; soft consumer adds volume risk. Tariff-court reversal mildly offsets. Net modest negative, no direct FDX news.
GMmixed	mixed small	accumulation	No direct GM news. Tariff court-strike and refunds ease steel/aluminum input costs, but higher-for-longer rates, record credit-card debt and record-low sentiment pressure auto demand. Offsetting macro reads net to a slight mixed tilt.
JPMmixed	mixed small	accumulation	No direct JPM hit. Higher-for-longer rates plus a hot deal/trading pipeline help NII and capital-markets revenue, but record consumer credit strain, record-low sentiment, and private-credit stability warnings offset. Net wash, minor.
LLYdown	down small		Rival Novo Nordisk raised guidance on strong oral Wegovy sales, a competitive negative for Lilly's GLP-1/oral orforglipron franchise. No direct Lilly, pricing, or compounding news this week.
UNPmixed	mixed small	accumulation	No direct UNP hit. Indirect reads offset: tariff-court relief and rebounding truck/freight orders mildly positive; fuel-cost volatility (largely surcharge-hedged) and weak consumer strain mildly negative. Net roughly neutral.
WMTmixed	mixed small	accumulation	No direct WMT news. Tariff relief is a mild positive for an importer; offset by record-low consumer sentiment, record credit-card debt, and rising food/fuel inflation squeezing discretionary spend. Small, offsetting indirect reads.
