Where the elite engineers go, the capital follows.
Every Monday we scan three streams — talent movement, capital formation, and hiring demand — across twelve sectors, and map what we find to public tickers. This is the full record, including the parts that went nowhere.
Electrician shortage flagged as the binding constraint on datacenter builds.
The Signal Tape
Every sector, every week of the record. Direction is the reading the scan filed that week — not a price move.

The Kill-Switch Strip — four scares, zero trips

Methodology
Each Monday scan reads three independent streams and files a directional call per sector. Nothing here is a model output; every cell traces to a dated, linkable source.
The record begins November 3, 2025, but continuous live scanning began Jul 4, 2026. Everything before that date was reconstructed retrospectively from dated primary sources. Reconstructed weeks are drawn at reduced saturation inside a labelled provenance band in every view on this page. Reconstructed scans must not be used to backtest signal predictiveness — they were assembled with knowledge of what followed.
