IRDM — candidate.roundup
Reason: IRDM stays the only clean structure — +2.16% on the week, +34.4% against its 200-day, +172.42% on the year. The other three bounced without repairing anything: RKLB +10.38% on the week but still -13% against its 200-day with its thesis still flagged broken; LUNR +9.88% but still -24.2% against its 200-day; ASTS barely moved (+1.2%) and its one-year gain has compressed hard, from +41.22% two weeks ago to +9.45% now. None of the three has reclaimed its 200-day.

Status reads the 200-day trend first and RSI second; Action is a trend-hold lens — an extended name is never an entry, and a name below its 200-day with a negative year is not a dip.
