TACTransAlta Corporation
What is the market doing?
No clear lean: nothing decisive, though in a downtrend (−5% vs 200-day).
In a downtrend, below its 50- and 200-day averages. Price is −5% vs its 200-day average.
Moderately shorted, settled Sep 30, 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.
