What does "buy" mean in CNQ activity?
"Buy" means an investor increased their reported position in CNQ compared to the prior reporting period. This reflects growing exposure to CANADIAN NATURAL RESOURCES (CNQ) rather than necessarily a brand-new position (though new positions also appear as buys when prior quantity was zero).
Is institutional interest in CNQ increasing?
