Institutional ownership(reported by Reuters) is flirting with 8% for as long as I remember. It must be long considering my age. Small fluctuation (+/- 0.2% to 0.4%) is most likely related to market condition.
Majority holders (reported by Stockwatch) are index and energy related funds who are obligated to hold CLL due to their investment policy. I do not know how reliable the Reuters and Stockwatch numbers are. They show totally different # of institutions.
CLL short position 8.4M is about 50% of the institutional ownership. It is stuck at this level since Dec31/2007 to Feb29/2008.
