This chart in words

The chart plots daily Reddit mentions of CIEN over the 30 days to 21 September 2026: 28 in total, busiest on 3 September with 10, and 1 on the last day counted. Across this window the close ran between $316 on 3 September and $403.94 on 26 August. The line is the daily close over the same window: $396 on 23 August, $349 on 20 September. Of those days, 19 were trading sessions and the other 11 are hatched on the chart. On 9 of them no session took place, and the last close before it is carried forward rather than plotted; on 1 of them no session took place, and this window holds no earlier close to carry forward; on 1 of them we hold no close at all, which is a gap in our own record rather than a closure we can prove. Sentiment — the bullish share of the mentions that took a side, where the chart's dashed rule marks the 50% at which bullish and bearish are even — ran from 80% bullish to 93% bullish over the 6 days that carried enough mentions to measure. 9 days either fell under the 5-mention floor or carried no bullish or bearish mention at all, and so carry no sentiment point.
