Put the move in context.
Start with an observation. Compare the wider market. Then look for evidence—not a convenient story.
01 · YOUR OBSERVATION
What changed?
Use a dated quote from your own source. These inputs are not independently verified.
02 · EVIDENCE BEFORE EXPLANATION
A clearer starting point.
Your report will separate what you entered from what still needs verification.
