Statistical Validation
✓ SIGNIFICANTt-test (one-sample): t=2.274, p=0.039 — mean weekly return significantly positive when DEI ≥ 45
✓ SIGNIFICANTMann-Whitney U: p=0.0004 — 1.65× higher realized volatility when DEI elevated
⚠ SMALL SAMPLEBinomial test: p=0.151 — win rate directional significance requires n≥30 signals (currently n=15)
✓ SIGNIFICANTPearson r (all 12 SV nodes): r=0.28–0.88, p<0.001 — all nodes statistically significant (n=993)

Honest Assessment: The primary validated edge is volatility prediction — DEI ≥ 45 reliably identifies periods of elevated realized volatility (1.72× increase, p=0.0004). Directional accuracy (67.7%) is promising but based on 15 signals — insufficient for statistical confirmation at this stage. The system is positioned as a structural risk monitor and volatility early-warning tool.
