ARESAres Management
What is the market doing?
No clear lean: rangebound and moderately shorted.
Rangebound, no clear trend. Oversold (RSI 28). Price is −10% vs its 200-day average.
Moderately shorted, settled Sep 15, 2026, more than a week of normal trading to cover, a crowded exit.
Where this answer is blind. Insider selling is often routine (taxes, diversification); only cluster buying is a strong tell.
