The distinction betwen "strong hands replacing fast hands" is really well articulated here. Your point about the consolidation above $7.1 being a constructive exhale rather than reversal is exactly what I've been watching. The $380M backlog is impressive, but I agree the real test is task order conversion velocity. If they can demonstrate that in Q4, the multiple compression risk you mentioned vs peers like C3 and Booz Allen becomes less relevant. Thanks for the detailed technical framework.

Exactly. conversion velocity is the missing catalyst. If execution catches up to backlog momentum, we could see a re-rating similar to early $PLTR. Appreciate the sharp take.

Your tactical approach here is exactly right for BBAI's current setup. The consolidation above $7 shows the stock has real support beyond just momentum chasers. That $380M backlog is the key, and once we start seeing those DoD task orders convert into recognizable revenue, the market will revalue this quickly. The defense AI space is getting more atention, but BBAI's actual contract wins separate it from the pure hype plays.

Spot on. The defense AI angle gives BBAI real substance versus the hype names. If backlog conversion shows up in Q4, the market won’t ignore it much longer.
