What is the market doing?
No clear lean: rangebound and insiders net selling (often routine).
Choppy, but holding above its 200-day average. Price is +5% vs its 200-day average.
Insiders were net sellers over the 90 days ending Oct 8, 2026; selling is often routine (taxes, diversification).
Moderately shorted, settled Sep 15, 2026, about a week of normal trading to cover. Down 13% since the previous count, down from 6.8% of shares outstanding three months ago.
