    "<b>1,189,135,740-parameter (1.189B)</b> financial Conformer pre-trained across 14 calendar years (2010–2023; 168 monthly shards, 15,030 steps) "
    "of 1-minute US equity bars and evaluated on 32,100 stratified contiguous windows (2020–2026: 7,896 pre-2024 historical crisis stress windows and 24,204 forward out-of-sample windows across 2024–2026). Across out-of-sample cohorts, "
    "scaling from a 63-parameter linear ridge baseline to 1.189B parameters yields <b>no capacity advantage beyond the empirical noise floor</b> "
    "(±0.010 AUC), with ridge matching or exceeding the Conformer at 1m (<b>0.5289 vs. 0.5177 NZAUC</b>; a +0.0112 advantage slightly exceeding the empirical noise floor). Decomposing predictions reveals that apparent "
    "pre-training gains stem from identifying flat, uninformative bars rather than predicting price direction: on strict non-zero returns, "
    "discrimination is small but positive (<b>0.5177 NZAUC at 1m</b>), while decaying toward chance at longer horizons. In continual walk-forward fine-tuning, "
    "weight updates exhibit a sharp structural divergence: input tokenizer updates sit at <b>97.9% of the Adam Brownian noise ceiling</b> "
    "(η*sqrt(K) = 3.10e-4), whereas deep backbone updates are <b>3.4x smaller</b> under real labels than under shuffled noise (24.4% vs. 83.5% of ceiling; "
    "||ΔW||_RMS = 7.58e-5 vs. 2.59e-4), consistent with weak gradient signals suppressed by Adam damping. Paired block bootstraps across 35 hypothesis tests "
    "confirm no statistically significant transfer gains after Holm-Bonferroni correction (p >= 0.50). Finally, introducing a 1-bar execution delay eliminates "
    "apparent 60m profits, cutting net Sharpe from +2.04 to +0.48 in 2024 and yielding a Deflated Sharpe Ratio of DSR <= 0.028 across all horizons. "
    "These findings establish an empirical null result on parameter scale for intraday return forecasting."
