Trend Runway

Implied spot is 832.35 with the stock +8.5% vs 50DMA and +22.8% vs 200DMA. The tape is sitting 99.0% through the 52-week range, which frames the regime as trend runway open.

Ownership Register

Institutions hold about 64.0% and insiders about 134.2%, locking roughly 65.4% of the register and leaving 34.6% in free float. That reads as institutional gravity.

Pressure Pocket

The API did not return a usable short-float field for this ticker, so the pressure score leans more on float lock and crowding than a full short ledger.
