All three tenses have at least two readings, so the archetype blend applies as printed.

What are the people in charge doing?
SI estimate 5.8/10, confidence 20 of 100 (family median).
SI estimate Inferred, not read as filed
From the record
SI estimate, not a filed reading: Nordic American Tanker's leadership is put at 5.8 of 10 with a confidence of 20 of 100, because it files no Form 8-K (a foreign issuer reports on Form 6-K), so officer and director changes cannot be read there; the record of its people begins on 2026-03-24 (a listing, a merger or a first filing under the rules) and its chief executive and most of the people in charge have filed since then, so the record shows a floor of 7 months and cannot see past it; a floor under five years is not read as years in charge, so the desk assumes the typical reading of its industry family, the median of 10 members with one. Its next annual report on file with the inputs replaces this estimate with the filed reading.
