CLBK is trading below its 200-day MA ($17.22) — a key warning sign the longer-term trend is under pressure. With an RSI of 84.0, momentum has stretched into overbought territory — short-term pullbacks are common from these levels. The 1-year return of -19.2% compares to +20.5% for SPY (trailed the market by 39.7%). The current 54.4% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
