Separate the two contributions

What actually drove the recent move?

The depressed leg can recover, the extended leg can weaken, or both can move together at different speeds.

Specific pair playbook

What is the play in MAGN / SPB?

Use the current conditions as checkpoints. A strong historical relationship and a wide gap can still lack a supported entry case.

No pair trade

Do not pair long MAGN with short SPB yet

The earlier relationship is not dependable enough to use the old gap as a trading reference. A large separation can persist when the businesses or their market drivers have changed.

What would confirm it?

The next useful observation

Research the company-specific catalyst before considering a relative-value expression. A relationship repair must be visible first.

Reconsider the pair only after a later publication shows that the relationship has stabilised, break risk has fallen and the completed daily gap is moving back toward normal.

What keeps it valid?

Follow both sides of the pair

Until those conditions return, neither leg is a relative-value trade from this research.

A favourable relative move means MAGN rises more than SPB, falls less than SPB, or rises while SPB falls. If SPB outperforms MAGN, the pair moves against the case.

What would cancel it?

Recognise a changing relationship

Fading an information-driven move can compound losses because the historical centre may no longer be relevant.

The pair remains unusable while break risk is high or the earlier co-movement has not returned.

Possible setup paths ยท How the relative-value idea could be expressed
Two-leg convergence structure

Long MAGN / short SPB

Treat both legs as one relative position. The setup looks for MAGN to outperform SPB; MAGN can rise faster, fall less, or rise while SPB falls. The pair loses ground when SPB outperforms MAGN.

When it becomes relevant This is a structure to study only after the current course changes from โ€œStand asideโ€ to confirmed convergence. Reconsider only after the pair rebuilds stable co-movement, repeated centre crossings and lower break risk.

Principal risk Requires a live review of both legs, borrow availability and cost, event dates, liquidity and the research normalisation.

Depressed-leg recovery study

Study MAGN alone if its own evidence confirms

This simpler expression focuses on recovery in MAGN. It avoids short-borrow mechanics, but it no longer isolates relative value: the result is exposed to the broad market, the sector and MAGN-specific news.

When it becomes relevant A stronger case needs improving MAGN price structure and supporting evidence, not just a wide relationship gap.

Principal risk Carries full single-security and broad-market direction risk.

Extended-leg rollover study

Study SPB alone if its support continues to weaken

This expression focuses on weakness in SPB. It may fit a leader-rollover case, but it also abandons the relative hedge and adds direct market direction, squeeze and company-event risk.

When it becomes relevant Weakening in SPB must be visible in its own completed evidence; relative extension alone is not enough.

Principal risk Short selling can involve unlimited loss, borrow fees, recalls and forced close-outs.

Different price moves. Different outcomes for the gap.

Test hypothetical moves from the published weekly close. The result shows distance from the fitted centre; it is not a forecast, position size or profit estimate.

1.65ฯƒ from the centre

Example: MAGN +5%, SPB +2%.

The same percentage move in both names does not necessarily leave the fitted gap unchanged: their historical sensitivity is 0.806, relative to the depressed leg.

How the scenario is calculated

Keep the published weekly fit and its historical spread variation fixed. The change is log(1 + depressed-leg return) minus 0.806 ร— log(1 + extended-leg return), expressed in standard deviations. Returns enter as decimals. If the depressed leg is the modelโ€™s second security, both the coefficient and spread scale are inverted consistently.

Starting point: 18 Sep 2026. The calculation does not refit the relationship, forecast how either security moves or include fees, dividends or borrow costs. A result beyond the centre can become a new gap on the opposite side.

Check the story behind the separation

The comparison below is saved with the weekly pair edition. Linked apps may have newer readings; compare their dates before combining evidence.

Evidence now
  • SPB Market Dynamics is weakening.
What can overwhelm the relationship?
  • SPB has a stored short-interest crowding or squeeze warning.
  • Borrow availability, borrow cost and locate status are not stored and must be checked before any short sale.
  • Pair relationships can break after company-specific news, earnings, capital actions or a structural industry change.
Fitted sensitivity

0.806ร—

A 1% move in SPB is associated with approximately 0.806% in MAGN in the historical log-price fit.

This coefficient is not a share ratio or a position-size instruction. The displayed hedge ratio is a research normalisation, not a position-size instruction. Live borrow and transaction costs are outside the stored evidence set.

Measure guide

Weekly separation

How far the latest completed weekly relationship sits from its own historical centre.

A larger reading means the two securities are unusually far apart relative to this relationship's completed history. It identifies a dislocation; it does not, by itself, predict convergence.

Measure guide

Daily timing

The direction of the gap across the latest completed daily sessions.

Narrowing means the daily gap has begun to close, extending means it has widened, and stable means the change is not yet material. The weekly relationship remains the primary research clock.

Measure guide

Relationship quality

A public summary of how dependable the completed historical relationship has been.

It brings together repeatability, stability and later-sample behaviour. Higher is stronger, but no score guarantees that a historical relationship will continue.

Measure guide

Evidence alignment

Whether the wider stored evidence supports the depressed leg relative to the extended leg.

The comparison uses published price structure and supporting research for both securities. Higher alignment means more of that evidence points in the same relative direction; construction weights are not disclosed.

Measure guide

Stability

How consistently the relationship held across earlier and later completed observations.

Higher stability means the relationship changed less across the sample. It is a durability check, not a forecast or a guarantee of mean reversion.

Measure guide

Break risk

The risk that the earlier relationship is no longer a dependable reference point.

Lower is better. A high reading warns that the separation may reflect new information or a structural change rather than a temporary gap.

Measure guide

Fitted price sensitivity

The coefficient in the historical log-price relationship, not a number of shares.

The fit compares log price A with a constant plus this coefficient times log price B. For small percentage moves, it describes how much A historically moved with a 1% move in B. It is not a position-size instruction or a hedge in shares; portfolio value, live borrow, costs and risk limits are separate.

Measure guide

Held-out resolution

How often earlier measured separations later moved back near their fitted centre.

Each historical check is fitted only on information that came before it. The result is descriptive evidence from this relationship's history, not an expected return or future probability.
