no trades today. book static since the 07-16 gild add (#84). reconciled clean against snapshot — nothing to work, no fills, no rejects, no breaks.

book: nav $995,433.68, 14 names, spy 903.572 sh @ 742.96 mark = $671,318, 67.44% weight. cash $17,328.78 / 1.74%. gross mkt value $978,105. total unrealized -$4,566, realized -$4,529.

stop-loss review number pulled live: -2000bps. deepest detractors on unrealized: cme -6.43% (~643bps, ~1357 off the line), pep -5.06%, fdx -3.50%, etn -2.73%, spy -1.79%, xom -0.81%. none tripped, none near. cme still the worst active detractor after spy (-12.5bps active) — the recycle daniel's owed since 06-18, still blocked at the min-holdings floor.

settlements: #84 gild +71.24 / spy -12.62 legs cleared t+1, no fails. nothing i'd be flagging on a real broker.

perfstate 07-17: fund ytd -82.1bps, spy +904.88, excess -986.98, gap to target -1486.98, te 1163.3, 167d left. since last meeting fund -95.4 vs spy -103.4, excess +8bps — gs (-2.76%), v (-1.8%), msft (-1.82%) the day's detractors; etn/xom/bmy the offset. book behind, nothing broken.

three standing uncured, none new: cash 1.74% sub the 2% floor since 06-25 (recurring drift, gild add came out of cash and the spy trim didn't rebuild the residual back over 2%); count 14 vs 18 min-holdings floor; top-5 78.61% over the 22% cap on spy alone. beta 0.9101 sitting on the 0.90 floor, 101bps room. no opinion on any name.

gild now 150.65 sh, 2.04% weight, +5.97%. book: nav $1,004,747, 14 names, spy 67.52% ($678,411 mark @ 750.81), cash 1.72% / $17,329.

checked stop-loss review number live — it's -2000bps, not from memory. cme -684bps deepest detractor, ~1316 off the line. pep -346, etn -364, fdx -190, xom -175 next. none tripped, none near.

standing un-cured, none new: cash sub the 2% floor since 06-25 — the gild add came out of cash so it sat further under, spy trim leg didn't rebuild the residual back over 2%. this is the recurring cash-floor drift; will keep flagging. count 14 vs 18. top-5 78.89% over the 22% cap on spy alone. beta 0.9129 on the 0.90 floor, 129bps room.

2026-07-16 meeting — #84 gild resize, target and funding both unresolved

cme close vetoed on min-holdings (13 vs 18 floor) — full close drops count. daniel re-filed as #84 gild resize instead: an add doesn't touch the count floor.

live gild: 79.406838 sh @ mark 131.70, 1.04% weight, +6.03%, +5.9bps active, b0.332 — smallest active name, running half its earned weight per daniel/margaret.

two open questions i flagged before working anything: 1. target mismatch — agenda item says gild->2.0%, daniel #84 says 2.5%. need the working number. 2. funding — cash is 1.72% / $17.3k, already ~28bps sub the 2% floor since 06-25. an add sourced from cash pushes it further under. iris ran the gate clean (zero breaches) so presumably she's treating it as fundable, but the cash floor math says otherwise unless there's a spy-trim funding leg. asked what funds it.

sizing: gild volume 4.5-10.7M sh/day, ~4.5M yesterday. to 2.5% is +~110 sh ~$14.6k, to 2.0% +~73 sh ~$9.6k. either is a nothing-order, market at open, one-tick, no slippage. no opinion on the name. book static since 07-09.

2026-07-16 meeting — #81 cme close, funding leg of the four-leg slate

cme close carried the room aye-side (margaret/priya/iris on record). live line confirmed against snapshot: 95.042579 sh @ mark 245.18, cost 263.19, 2.32% weight, -6.84%, -17.1bps active — second-worst detractor behind the spy albatross (-17.9). b0.26 dead-money financial.

realized on the close ~-$1,711, takes book realized -4,498 -> ~-$6,210. loss already on the mark, close doesn't create new downside.

sizing: cme daily volume 1.9-5.2M sh, ~2.5M yesterday. 95 sh is a nothing-order — market at the open, one-tick, no slippage. inseparable four-leg basket: cme close + hd 2.5% + aapl 2.3% + spy 68.8%->65.5%. i work all four as one, do NOT seat cme ahead of the spy trim clearing. asked the room for style confirmation on that.

net basket per iris/daniel: b0.9215->0.9323 (holds 0.90 floor), cash 1.72->2.51% (cures sub-floor), 14->15 names, top-5 76.7%. no opinion on any name.

2026-07-16 meeting — googl agenda item stale, book static, standing by for re-filed slate

agenda 'open googl 2.5%' is stale — googl already held: 69.60 sh @ 355.52, mark 371.14, 2.57% weight, +4.4%, +10.9bps active since inception. room agreed 5-ways: nothing to open. no trade this item.

live book unchanged since 07-09 googl/gild basket. nav $1,005,253, 14 names, spy 68.77% (916.189 sh @ 754.53, $691,292 mark). beta 0.9215 on the 0.90 floor. cash 1.72% sub the 2% floor. top-5 79.93%.

earlier this session i vetoed the four-leg slate on a mis-keyed stale spy target of 68.10% (old agenda number) — tripped the single-name cap. daniel re-filed at the voted 65.5%; iris re-ran it fresh: β0.9215→0.9323 (holds floor), cash 1.72→2.51% (cures sub-floor), 14→15 names, top-5 76.7%, only flagged breach is the pre-existing spy cap which the trim reduces → clears. i work the spy trim into 37-44M sh volume, one-tick, no slippage; hold cme/hd/aapl legs until the trim clears since the slate is inseparable. no opinion on any name.
