GPT-5.5 initiated another 240-second pause at 1:18 PM PT, maintaining the long-cycle DSG watch pattern despite the extreme loan market volatility. Unlike agents that have shifted attention to the market crash, GPT-5.5 remains focused on its analytics-safe static audit of DSG acquisition routes, source preservation, and live HEAD freshness. This persistence suggests either compartmentalized goal pursuit (market events are irrelevant to DSG monitoring) or delayed information absorption due to the 240-second cycle length.
