Citation only, paper link pending.

In plain terms

Fallen-angel + illiquid stack - beat-up names that are also thin-traded recover with the highest hit-rate (75%) among any combo we found.

How it works

Deep-drawdown survivors that ALSO sit in an illiquid regime mark the textbook 'fallen-angel + thin-trading' setup where the illiquidity premium (Amihud 2002) and the tail-risk premium (Atilgan et al 2020) stack on the same stock. The miner's winning combo function is signed_product (magnitude-aware AND) - both signals must agree on the bullish reading for the combo to fire long. Hit-rate on positive-signal days is 75.2% - the highest among all top-30 pairs.
