A fully rewritten Spicy 2.0 parser generator delivers up to 40% faster compilation and adds support for modern protocols including QUIC-v2 and HTTP/3. The release also includes over 30 CVE-level security fixes and built-in cluster orchestration tools, with roughly 1,300 commits and 400 pull requests merged in total.

Stock Scorer Shows Negative Predictive Power in A-Share Backtest

A developer built a three-pillar scoring model for Chinese A-shares, combining technical, volume/price, and valuation signals to rank stocks and select the top 50. When audited against 70 rebalance dates and 587 stocks, the composite score showed a significantly negative rank information coefficient, meaning higher scores tended to precede lower returns. Two of the three pillars had negative IC values, and the only positive one came from the component labeled fundamental, which the author suspects is mislabeled. Decile analysis reinforced the finding, as the highest-scoring stocks underperformed the lowest-scoring ones over the five-day horizon. The author used the same shipped code in the audit rather than a rewritten version, and noted that the results are not perfectly monotonic and occurred during a falling market window.

Maruti Suzuki's quarterly margin figures differ by measure, not by error

Maruti Suzuki's July–September 2026 results drew different margin figures from different outlets, including 5.9%, 5.5%, and 8.9%. The variation comes from measuring profit at different levels: EBITDA counts only running costs, EBIT also deducts depreciation, and pre-tax margin further adjusts for interest and other income. Maruti's large cash holdings lift its other income, which is why its pre-tax margin sits above its EBIT margin. The author notes that Indian filings are not uniformly labelled, so the platform standardised on pre-tax profit divided by sales for all Indian stocks. The piece argues that data should always be shown alongside the name of the measure used.
