Long AVGO, short ANET, same sector: $1 of AVGO against $0.87 of ANET, sized so that a typical day moves each leg by about the same amount. The spread is -42.7% over the last 120 sessions, -5.8% over the last 20, and today's level sits at the 10th percentile of its own path, deeply compressed, narrowing over the last ten sessions. Alpha 80 against 91, a gap of -11 points (+16 ten sessions ago). Net market exposure at this sizing: −0.02, a clean relative bet. Same sector, not true peers on the desk's test.
Not on the desk's list as of Nov 10, three sessions behind. Pro sees today's list.
The last 7 times these two sat this far below their one-year average, 1 closed half the gap within ten sessions: a spread that has tended to keep going. ANET leads (Alpha 91); AVGO is not a fresh riser (Alpha 80).
One line of your account split $1 : $0.87 across the legs at the last close (AVGO $356.00, ANET $207.34); fractions included. Arithmetic on a setting you choose, not a recommendation.

Each leg against its sector fund, and each leg's true peers.
How to read it: the spread is what $1 long AVGO and $0.87 short ANET would have made together, in percent of the long leg, close to close, before costs; the market's move cancels in it to the extent the two legs share it. Stretch is where today's level sits among the last 120 sessions of that path, a description of the spread's own history and not a forecast. Net β is the pair's remaining market exposure per $1 long at this sizing (each leg's beta over 250 sessions). The pages for AVGO and ANET carry each leg on its own.
