Intel Hazardous Waste Tonnage
Monthly hazardous waste shipped from Intel chip fabs (7 US handlers). Process chemistry tracks fab utilization 1:1.
the verdict —
Engine has no recorded fires for this indicator (no day where |z|≥2 against the rolling window). The series is too steady, the threshold is too high, or the data is too short to evaluate. The OOS-validated status is from a prior pass; with no new fires it can't be re-confirmed.

— Beyond SPY — how this signal performs across markets —
Same fire days, different forward returns. Each row asks: when this signal fires, what does that asset do? The big number is the average return; underneath is how often the asset moved the same direction as the signal (50% would be a coin flip).
