Visual expression of the Removal Is Neutral Principle, affirming that removing capital or positions is a structural adjustment without judgment, reward, or penalty.


📘 Removal Is Neutral Principle

Policy Name: Removal Is Neutral Principle
Version: v1.0
Status: ✅ LOCKED
Effective Date: December 21, 2025
Applies To: Micro Harvesting Portfolio (all positions and frameworks)


1. Purpose

This principle governs how stock removal, deactivation, or reclassification is interpreted within the Micro Harvesting system.

Its objectives are to:

  • Prevent emotional framing of removals

  • Separate governance decisions from performance narratives

  • Preserve decision clarity and capital discipline

  • Ensure consistent treatment of exits across all frameworks

  • Eliminate regret-based or pride-based bias

Removal is an act of alignment, not judgment.


2. Definition of Neutral Removal

A neutral removal is defined as:

The deliberate exclusion of a stock from active participation without assigning success, failure, gain, or loss meaning to the decision.

Neutrality refers to governance posture, not numerical outcome.


3. Governing Principles (Non-Negotiable)

  1. Removal does not imply a mistake.

  2. Removal does not imply correctness of prior inclusion.

  3. Removal does not require a loss or a gain.

  4. Removal does not demand immediate replacement.

  5. Removal is final unless governed by a reactivation protocol.

Only rule compliance matters.


4. Conditions Under Which Removal Is Neutral

A stock removal is automatically considered neutral if it occurs under any of the following conditions:

  • Role Misalignment
    The stock no longer fits its assigned framework or function.

  • Structural Ineligibility
    The stock fails to meet minimum criteria of all active systems.

  • Opportunity Cost Dominance
    Capital efficiency is materially inferior to alternatives.

  • Framework Reclassification
    The stock is moved to SUNSET, Dormant, or Archive status.

  • Lifecycle Completion
    The stock has fulfilled its intended portfolio purpose.

No additional justification is required.


5. What Neutral Removal Is Not

Neutral removal shall not be interpreted as:

  • ❌ A realized loss (unless explicitly sold at a loss)

  • ❌ A failed thesis

  • ❌ A psychological defeat

  • ❌ A signal to “make it back” elsewhere

  • ❌ A mandate to immediately redeploy capital


6. Capital Treatment Upon Removal

Upon neutral removal:

  • Capital may be:

    • Reallocated deliberately,

    • Parked as cash, or

    • Left as a residual accounting artifact

  • No urgency to redeploy is imposed

  • Cash is recognized as a valid position

Residual outcomes (zero, positive, or incidental) do not affect neutrality.


7. Documentation and Record-Keeping

All neutral removals shall be logged with:

  • Date of removal

  • Framework or level at time of removal

  • Eligibility-based reason

  • New status (e.g., SUNSET, Dormant, Archived)

Performance commentary is optional and non-operative.


8. Behavioral Safeguards

The portfolio manager shall not:

  • Delay removal to avoid emotional discomfort

  • Reinterpret history to justify retention

  • Force a new framework onto an ineligible stock

  • Re-enter removed stocks without formal reactivation approval

Any such behavior constitutes governance erosion.


9. Relationship to Other Protocols

This principle operates in conjunction with:

  • SUNSET Governance Protocol v1.0

  • SUNSET Reactivation Protocol v1.0

  • Level Promotion / Demotion Protocol v1.0

  • Harvesting Policy v1.0

In case of conflict:

  • Governance protocols supersede narrative interpretation.


10. Meta-Rule

Stocks are temporary.
Standards are permanent.

A portfolio that never removes stocks is static, not disciplined.


Change Log

  • v1.0 — December 21, 2025
    Initial codification and lock-in of the Removal Is Neutral Principle.

📍 Matatagpuan sa V. Escaño St., Brgy. C, Rosario Batangas, si GAWLOO ay hindi lang basta kainan — isa siyang kwento ng pangarap, passion, at panlasang umikot sa Asia.


GAWLOO, The Southeast Asian Congee Experience Dine-In

Ang may-ari, si Jay Ubana, ay isang Batangueñong cook na nagtrabaho sa Singapore at Dubai ng 12 taon. Sa dami ng napuntahan niyang bansa—Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore—natutunan niyang i-appreciate ang iba't ibang bersyon ng congee. “Paborito talaga ng mga Pinoy ang lugaw,” wika ni Jay, “Kahit anong oras, kahit anong pakiramdam—masarap maglugaw.”

⭐ Lasa't Alaala sa Bawat Higop

Hindi lang basta lugaw, kundi southeast Asian-inspired congee na may toppings na mala-ulam sa sarap:

🍲 Seafood Gawloo at Lechon Gawloo — ang kanilang best-sellers na puwedeng pang-breakfast o pang-dinner.

🍛 Mix & Match Toppings: Tuwalya, Chicharon Bulaklak, Atay, Chicken, Fried Tokwa at iba pa.

🍗 Rice Meals tulad ng Chao Fan with Pork Siomai, Chicharon Bulaklak, o Lechon Kawali — swak sa mga ayaw ng sabaw pero gusto pa rin ng siksik sa lasa.

🧋 Drinks? May Black Gulaman at Lychee para pampawi ng uhaw habang humihigop ka ng mainit-init na lugaw.

💸 Presyo na Kayang-Kaya

Hindi mo kailangang bumyahe pa sa abroad para matikman ang ganitong congee—₱80 lang ang Small Bowl na may 1 Topping, at kung mas gutom ka, may Large Bowl for ₱90. Pwede ka ring magpa-top up ng 2, 3 o 4 na toppings para sa ultimate lugaw overload!

🤳 Para sa mga G na umorder online

Pwede kang magpa-deliver! Text o tawag lang sa 09397785658. Hanapin lang ang GAWLOO sa Facebook para sa menu at updates.


Sa totoo lang, sa bawat higop ng lugaw sa GAWLOO, parang may yumayakap sa’yo—maalala mo si Nanay o si Lola na nagluluto ng lugaw tuwing masama ang pakiramdam mo. Ngayon, kahit wala si Nanay sa tabi mo, may GAWLOO ka sa Rosario.

Supportahan natin ang lokal! Tikman ang lugaw na may kwento. Tikman ang GAWLOO.
