EverHint Signal — Momentum Swing: Volatile High Beta — December 01, 2025

What This Signal Is (Quick)

Momentum Swing — Volatile High Beta is a volatility-based breakout scanner for traders who are comfortable with sharp moves in both directions. It looks for stocks with 60–150% annualized volatility, strong relative strength, and price action pressing into or through recent highs.

Today’s signals are all classic momentum continuation setups: strong uptrends, price above key moving averages, and volume running well above its recent norm. These are risk-on ideas: when they work, they can trend hard; when they fail, they can unwind quickly. This is an experimental scanner, intended for research, education, and back-testing rather than blind execution.

If you are trading around these names, think in terms of 1–4 week swing horizons, clear invalidation levels, and position sizes that respect the volatility.

How We Ranked Today (Reader Version)

For today’s list, the signals are ranked by a composite score (0–1 scaled to 0–100) that blends:

• Trend strength vs longer-term moving averages
• Proximity to 52-week highs
• 10–63 day momentum and 21-day relative strength vs SPY
• Liquidity via 20-day average dollar volume and volume thrust

On top of that, three overlays help with context:

• Insider flows: net open-market buying vs selling over the last 90 days (P vs S transactions only)
• Earnings proximity: days until the next scheduled earnings date
• Analyst coverage: how many analysts are publishing EPS estimates, plus how tight or wide the estimate ranges are

Signals are for educational use and back-testing. The goal is to highlight where aggressive risk capital appears to be concentrating, not to tell anyone what to buy or sell.

⚡ Breakout Signals

All four names are liquid (roughly 28–32M in average daily dollar volume) and sit very close to their 52-week highs, with 63-day volatility in the 60–95% zone.

Breakout scan — ranked by composite score

Field notes on the table

• Vol Thrust: all four names are trading roughly 1.6–2.4× their 20-day average volume, a classic sign of fresh participation.
• % of 52W High: SVM and VMEO are effectively at new 52-week highs; JANX and TGB are just a couple of percent below.
• Score: SVM stands out as the cleanest technical trend; JANX is next, with VMEO and TGB as lower-quality but still valid high-beta swings.
• Insider Net (USD):
  • JANX shows about –$601k in net open-market insider selling over the past 90 days (C-suite sales following option exercises).
  • SVM, VMEO, and TGB show no meaningful net open-market buying or selling (awards and exercises excluded).
• Days → Earnings: all four have earnings 70–90 days out, so there is no immediate earnings event risk on a 1–4 week swing, but the calendar is not empty either.

Recent Headlines (Last Few Days)

News flow in this scan is concentrated in SVM:

• SVM – Silvercorp Metals Inc.
  • Silver rallied to record levels on optimism around Fed rate cuts and real-rate relief, a constructive macro backdrop for a silver producer.
  • Additional items in the feed touch broader market themes (Tesla, SEC activity) rather than company-specific fundamentals, but they still speak to an elevated news and regulatory environment around risk assets.

The other names are moving more on technicals, liquidity and sector flows than on single headline catalysts in the last couple of days.

Field Notes

A few key metrics to keep in mind when looking at this list:

• Volatility profile
  • All four names run around 60–95% 63-day annualized volatility. These are not quiet stocks; intraday swings can be large relative to price.
• Trend structure
  • Prices are generally above their 50-day and 200-day moving averages, confirming established uptrends rather than early bottom-fishing attempts.
  • Proximity to 52-week highs suggests momentum continuation, but also means there is less “price memory” above current levels.
• Sector rotation
  • Two of four names (SVM, TGB) sit in Basic Materials, leaning into metals and mining risk.
  • JANX brings high-beta Healthcare/biotech exposure, while VMEO represents higher-volatility Technology / online video.
  • This mix suggests a broader risk-on tape where both cyclicals (metals) and growth/innovation pockets are getting attention.
• Analyst overlays
  • SVM: modest coverage (around 2 EPS analysts) with relatively tight ranges, consistent with a more mature, cash-flowing miner.
  • JANX: deeper coverage (roughly mid-teens EPS analysts) but with negative EPS expectations and meaningful dispersion; classic high-risk biotech profile.
  • VMEO and TGB: lighter but non-zero coverage, with relatively narrow EPS ranges, signaling that the names are on the radar but not consensus darlings.

For traders, this combination—strong price action, healthy liquidity, and varying degrees of fundamental visibility—creates a menu of ways to express a high-beta view, from more “real asset” plays (SVM/TGB) to speculative growth (JANX/VMEO).

Vlad’s Take (EverHint)

Today’s market backdrop: the S&P 500 finished essentially flat around 6813 (+0.00%), the Nasdaq Composite gained about +0.45%, while the Dow Jones slipped roughly –0.45%. Small-caps (Russell 2000) lagged at about –0.53%, hinting at some defensive positioning under the surface. The VIX closed near 17.25 (about –4.4% on the day), a “normal but alert” zone: not panic, but not full complacency either.

Rates and macro risk pricing are still very relevant here: the 10-year Treasury yield sits around 4.09%, up a bit more than 1% on the session, while the US Dollar Index hovers just under 100 with a slight dip. Crypto is flashing risk fatigue, with Bitcoin off roughly –4.4% and Ethereum down about –6.7%, a notable pullback after prior strength.

Against that backdrop, these volatile high-beta breakouts sit in an interesting spot:

• The index picture is mixed but not broken—tech is leading, value and small caps are more tentative.
• Volatility is moderate, which is friendly enough for swing trades but still demands respect in position sizing.
• Metals and mining (SVM, TGB) may benefit from any continued bid into real assets if rate-cut expectations and an easing dollar narrative stay in play.

Practical trading thoughts for this variant:

• Consider staggered entries (partial position now, add on constructive pullbacks) instead of going all-in at the day’s highs.
• Use structure-based risk: recent swing lows or short-term moving averages as invalidation, not arbitrary percentage stops.
• Be aware of liquidity windows—with this level of volume thrust, first 30–60 minutes and final hour of the US session can see outsized moves.
• Remember that volatility cuts both ways: the same leverage that drives fast gains can also accelerate reversals, especially if the broader tape flips from risk-on to risk-off.
