Reddit's attention on COST arrived in one burst — 48 of this window's 312 mentions landed on 20 August alone

This chart in words

The chart plots daily Reddit mentions of COST over the 30 days to 31 August 2026: 312 in total, busiest on 20 August with 48, and 5 on the last day counted. The line is the daily close over the same window: $952 on 2 August, $946 on 30 August. Of those days, 20 were trading sessions and the other 10 are hatched on the chart. On 8 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 70% bullish to 100% bullish over the 29 days that carried enough mentions to measure. 1 day either fell under the 5-mention floor or carried no bullish or bearish mention at all, and so carries no sentiment point.
