Serenity Perilla Leaf Stock Selection Framework

The Problem

• In high-momentum sectors, attention and coverage often concentrate on visible leaders, leaving less crowded upstream layers under-researched.
• Many “chokepoint” ideas are only conceptually connected to the terminal market, without clear proof of BOM necessity, competitive exclusivity, capacity rigidity, or pricing power.
• A useful screen needs to separate physical supply bottlenecks from crowded demand-side narratives.

How the Skill Works

The skill turns Perilla Leaf Theory into a structured supply-chain workflow:
- Three hard standards: irreplaceability, capacity rigidity, and low expected gap; a candidate is rejected if any one fails.
- Chokepoint mapping: start from downstream demand and work backward to the shortest board where a supplier failure would stall the chain.
- Mosaic validation: cross-check patents, customer lists, capacity roadmaps, and upstream material or equipment constraints.
- Information-gap scoring: review sell-side coverage, report frequency, institutional holding, retail discussion, and consensus expectations.
- True bottleneck checks: combine qualitative questions with quantitative signals such as gross margin, customer concentration, CAPEX, expansion lead time, and competitor expansion difficulty.
- Human decision gate: end with buy, watch, or pass, while requiring the user to confirm sizing, stop-loss, and risk discipline.

Boundaries

• This is useful for engineering-led industry research and public-information synthesis, not licensed investment advice.
• Small, illiquid names carry higher risk of mispricing, route-switching, and fundamental reversal.
• The Serenity persona is not independently verified, and reported returns are not auditable; use the framework rather than following individual stock calls.
