Tesla Hazardous Waste Tonnage

Monthly hazardous waste from Tesla US factories. EV manufacturing scale-up.

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).
