Dharma verdict
69–79. Suppressed, not low.
Recommendation: invest. A gap of +47 held down by sourced, addressable conditions. The gap is the return. (Gap +47)

Environmental burden ("Asthma Alley")
+12.1
Asthma hospitalization gap

Trust is a core axis of this thesis, not a footnote. High capital with low trust is exactly the pattern the Suppression Weight is built to surface — the Dharma Zone is where capital and trust move together.
LATENTlow capital · high trust
Trust is high but capital hasn’t arrived yet — the upside the thesis chases.
DHARMA ZONEhigh capital · high trust
Capital and community trust move together — the healthy target state.
SUPPRESSEDlow capital · low trust
Both capital and trust are held down — the starting condition suppression creates.
EXTRACTIVEhigh capital · low trust
Money is flowing in but the community doesn’t trust it — value is pulled out, not built.
v1 placeholder calibration (rho=0.80, ceiling=100). No headlineBand pinned (no external pitch value supplied); the engine derives the band from mean confidence. quadrant.capital/trust are a qualitative placement, refine with the content owner. Hunts Point's role as birthplace of the 'Asthma Alley' environmental-justice framing, and the South Bronx's broader role in the birth of hip-hop, are documented historical/cultural context but the latter is not shipped as its own quantifiable factor here (no Hunts Point-specific royalty/ownership/reach data was located in this research pass) — see kill-rule notes.
