Tier Analysis
Adoption signal active: HIMS the only one. +48.6% 30D, RSI 58 (still room), Discord chatter today. Cultural arbitrage thesis (consumer-led demand pre-Wall-Street recognition) is alive in this name. SMA50 +30% above SMA200 — momentum structurally re-asserting.
Cultural-decay tape: NKE (-44% from high, RSI 38), LULU (-58% from high, RSI 35), DPZ (-32% from high, RSI 34), BRBR (-79% from high). These are brands that owned cultural conversations and have been deshelved. LULU especially — lost another -13% in 7D.
Parabolic exhausting: CROX +28% 30D but lost -7.7% in 7D. RSI cooled from 77 to 61 — cultural moment may be peaking.
Stable but flat: SBUX clean uptrend but no acceleration. Coffee remains coffee.

- NKE/LULU — athletic-brand fatigue, alt-brand share loss (HOKA/On/Vuori)
- DPZ — pizza delivery losing to drive-thru/QSR rotation
- BRBR — protein-shake plateau after the brand peaked
- CROX — peak meme/footwear cultural moment showing first cracks (-7.7% 7D)
