Position among covered Communication Services companies that report each metric (minimum 5 peers). A relative position within our covered catalog — not a valuation, quality, or investment judgment. A higher percentile is simply a higher value (for P/E, more expensive on earnings — never "better"). Informational only.
Dividend coverage
Not assessed — last reported dividend predates the accounts. The most recent fiscal year in which GLIBK reported a dividend payment is FY2024, while its reported financial statements run through FY2025. Coverage is therefore not assessed for the latest year — an FY2024 ratio would not describe GLIBK today.
Coverage is derived from reported SEC EDGAR XBRL figures, comparing dividends paid against net income and free cash flow for the SAME fiscal year. It is not shown here because the latest fiscal year with a reported dividend payment (FY2024) is older than the latest year of reported financial statements (FY2025), so any ratio would describe an out-of-date year. Informational only — not financial advice.
How GCI Liberty (Series C) looks technically
GCI Liberty (Series C) (GLIBK) is trading 22.8% below its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a long-term downtrend. Its 50-day average crossed below its 200-day average about 95 trading days ago — a "death cross", a bearish long-term signal. A trend is forming but not yet strong — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 24 (a reading of 25+ marks a strong trend). Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 42, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). It made a new 20-day low about 8 trading days ago. It is 42.7% below its highest point of the past year.
Trend
8
| Distance from the 200-day | it is trading 22.8% below its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a long-term downtrend | -22.8% |
|---|---|---|
| 50-day moving average | its average price over the last 50 trading days — a short-term trend line — is $24.84 | $24.84 |
| 200-day moving average | its average price over the last 200 trading days — the long-term trend line — is $30.55 | $30.55 |
| Swing structure | each recent peak has been lower than the one before it and each dip deeper — the pattern chart-watchers call a downtrend, which describes where price has already been and not where it goes next | lower highs and lower lows |
| Last swing turn | its last significant turn was a swing low 9 calendar days ago — the swings before that are what the structure reading is measured on | 9 sessions |
| Wave structure | its recent swings can be read as a five-part downward sequence — what Elliott-wave chartists call an impulse — now in the fourth leg, a pullback against that downward direction; the labelling fails if price closes above 24.86. It is one of several labellings that fit, and it describes the swings already printed, not what comes next. The same swings also read as a completed three-part correction. | possible downward five-wave sequence, in wave 4 (one of several readings) |
| Since the 50/200 cross | its 50-day average crossed below its 200-day average about 95 trading days ago — a "death cross", a bearish long-term signal | 95 sessions |

| 14-day RSI | momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 42, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30) | 41.5 |
|---|---|---|
| Position in its 14-day range | it is trading in the lower half of its 14-day range ($22.89 to $25.00) — its "stochastic" reading is 33 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been slipping within that range over the last few sessions. | 33.3 |
| Since the MACD crossed zero | MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, is in negative territory (momentum leaning bearish) | 29 sessions |
Range

| 52-week high | its highest closing price over the past year (about 252 trading days) was $41.17 | $41.17 |

| From the 52-week high | it is 42.7% below its 52-week high (its highest price of the past year) | -42.7% |

| Since a 20-day breakout | it made a new 20-day low about 8 trading days ago | 8 sessions |
| Since a 55-day breakout | it is trading within its recent 55-day range, with no fresh breakout up or down | 0 sessions |
| All-time high | its highest closing price on record is $41.17 (set on 2026-02-18) | $41.17 |
| Given back of the 52-week move | over the past year its closes ranged ($19.86 to $40.04), and it has recovered roughly a quarter of its fall from last year’s high — 18% of it. Chart-watchers call 61.8%-65% given back the "golden pocket" — for this company that is $32.33 to $32.98. It is watched widely enough that orders cluster there, which is the honest reason it matters; it is not a forecast. | 18.5% |
| From the all-time high | it is 42.7% below its all-time high | -42.7% |
| Nearest price level | it is trading 50.5% below a resistance level at $35.51 — a price it turned at five times since 2025-10-08, most recently on 2026-04-07. Since 2025-07-15 it has 0 such levels below the current price and 4 above. Levels like these describe where the price has reversed or paused before; they are not a forecast of where it will go. | +50.5% |
| All-time low | its lowest closing price on record is $19.30 (set on 2026-06-18) | $19.30 |
| Above the all-time low | it is 22.2% above its all-time low | +22.2% |
Volatility
5
| Band width vs its own 6 months | day-to-day price swings are about average versus its own recent 6-month history | 42nd percentile |
|---|---|---|
| Typical daily range | in a typical session it travels about $0.7665 between its high and its low — about 3.3% of its price. That is its "average true range" over the last 14 sessions, which also counts the distance from the previous close, so a day that opens well away from yesterday counts as the large move it was | $0.7665 |
| Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ) | most of its recent trading has stayed between about $22.38 and $25.69 — the "Bollinger bands", a range drawn two standard deviations either side of its 20-day average price, which widens when the stock gets more volatile and narrows when it settles | $22.38 – $24.04 – $25.69 |
| Typical daily range (% of price) | its price moves about 3.3% in a typical session — about typical for the companies we cover. This is the average gap between a session's high and low over the last 14 sessions, counting overnight moves, expressed against the current price so it can be compared with companies trading at any price | 3.3% |
| Stretch from the 200-day average | it is trading 9.1 daily ranges below its 200-day average price (22.8% below it in plain percentage terms) — a way of asking how far it has stretched from its own average in units of how far it normally moves in a day, so a calm company and a jumpy one can be compared on the same scale | 9.1 daily ranges below its 200-day average |

Price gaps

| Gap at the open | it opened on 2026-10-08 0.6% below the previous session's close — an overnight gap, the part of the move that happened while the market was shut, and traded back through that level before the close | -0.6% |
|---|---|---|
| Gap filled | a 2.0% gap down opened on 2026-08-20 has been "filled" 33 sessions ago — price traded back through the level the gap left behind, and it took 1 session to close | 33 sessions ago |
Price streaks

| Closing streak | it has closed lower 2 sessions in a row, a -0.59% move over the run — an unbroken run of down days, which describes what has already happened and says nothing about the next session | 2 sessions down |

| Bearish technical signals | 4 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bearish state: a "death cross" — its 50-day average is below its 200-day, trading below its 200-day average, MACD momentum is negative, lagging the market over 6 months — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 4 of 9 |

1
| Vs the Ichimoku cloud | trading inside the Ichimoku cloud — a band drawn from where its own highs and lows sat up to 2026-09-01 and projected forward over today's price, the zone traders read as unresolved — neither side has established a trend, and the band is where that gets settled. The band itself is thick, spanning 8.1% of the share price, which is taken to mean a barrier that has held for a while and takes effort to cross. | 0.0% |
|---|
Volume-weighted price
1
| Vs this year’s average price paid | the price is 18% below the average price paid so far this year, so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $28.82 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 183 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -18.1% |

A level is a price this company reversed or paused at more than once — they describe past behaviour, not a forecast of where the price will go.
Wave structure
Its recent swings can be read as a five-part downward sequence — what Elliott-wave chartists call an impulse — now in leg 4 of five, a pullback against that direction.
This labelling fails — stops being a possible reading at all — if it closes above $24.86.
This is one of several labellings that fit the same swings, so treat it as a reading rather than the reading. It was chosen from 2 labellings that survived the rules, counting shorter readings of the same bars.
On past moves of this shape the leg has usually ended somewhere between $23.78 and $24.79 — that is where it has tended to end if the count holds, not a forecast of where the price goes.
Alternate reading: The same swings also read as a completed three-part correction, which fails on a close below $22.89.
This reading has stood for 3 trading days, since 2026-10-06.
Read from daily closes as of 2026-10-08.

AI-assisted comparison of GLIBK's 10-Q filed 2026-08-06 against the prior one filed 2026-05-07.
Management's Discussion & Analysis (MD&A)
- Added:
- Newer filing (2026-08-06) adds the line "I-17" after the bullet list and before "Table of Contents".
- Newer filing (2026-08-06) adds the heading "Table of Contents" before "For additional risk factors, please see Part I,".
- Notes:
- Both source texts appear truncated and end mid-sentence with "please see Part I,".
- Only the MD&A cautionary note section is present in both texts; no results of operations or financial condition narrative is available for comparison.
Risk Factors
- Added:
- Newer filing (2026-08-06) states Liberty Capital was formed in Nevada in December 2024 and describes the GCI Business transfer to Liberty Capital.
- Newer filing (2026-08-06) adds a new paragraph after the economic conditions section? No - it contains an 'Update on Economic Conditions' section that in the newer filing omits the sentence about U.S. Federal Reserve interest rates and mounting inflationary pressures and recessionary fears that was present in older filing? Actually clarify: The newer filing removes this sentence, so it's a removal.
- Removed:
- Older filing (2026-05-07) described the entity as GCI Liberty, Inc. ("GCI Liberty"), formed in Nevada in December 2024. Newer filing refers to Liberty Capital Corporation (f/k/a GCI Liberty, Inc. prior to a name change on May 21, 2026).
- Older filing (2026-05-07) contained the sentence: "After several years of higher interest rates, the U.S. Federal Reserve decreased interest rates in 2024 and the latter half of 2025, with no additional decreases thus far in 2026. Mounting inflationary cost pressures and recessionary fears have negatively impacted the U.S. and global economy." This sentence is not present in newer filing (2026-08-06).
- Reworded:
- Newer filing (2026-08-06) renames the company from "GCI Liberty, Inc. ("GCI Liberty")" to "Liberty Capital Corporation (f/k/a GCI Liberty, Inc. prior to a name change on May 21, 2026) ("Liberty Capital")" and consistently replaces "GCI Liberty" with "Liberty Capital" throughout the Overview section and Services Agreement description.
- Newer filing (2026-08-06) changes references to "GCI Liberty stock", "GCI Liberty non-voting preferred stock", and "GCI Group common stock" to "Liberty Capital stock", "Liberty Capital non-voting preferred stock", and "Liberty Capital GCI Group common stock" respectively.
- Newer filing (2026-08-06) changes "Series A GCI Group common stock ("GLIBA"), Series B GCI Group common stock ("GLIBB") and Series C GCI Group common stock ("GLIBK")" to "Liberty Capital Series A GCI Group common stock ("GLIBA"), Liberty Capital Series B GCI Group common stock ("GLIBB") and Liberty Capital Series C GCI Group common stock ("GLIBK")".
- Newer filing (2026-08-06) changes the page number in Table of Contents from I-16/I-17 to I-18.

Only open-market purchases (SEC code P) and sales (code S) are counted here. Option exercises, vesting/awards, gifts, and shares withheld for taxes are excluded — they are compensation or mechanical, not open-market conviction. Sales may be planned and non-discretionary (e.g. a Rule 10b5-1 plan) and are not necessarily bearish; open-market buying is not a recommendation to buy. Informational only — not financial advice.
Institutional ownership (13F)
5 institutional 13F filers reported holding GLIBK as of 2026-06-30 (quarter-end position, filed within 45 days).
- Distinct 13F filers 5
- Reported shares held 5,182,341
- Reported value $111,731,282
reported quarterly holdings change (2026-03-31 → 2026-06-30): 0 new, 4 increased, 1 decreased, 0 exited. Change counts cover only managers that filed 13F reports in BOTH quarters, derived between two quarter-end snapshots — not same-day trades; a single manager is never said to have "bought" or "sold".
Institutional holdings are quarter-end long positions reported on SEC Form 13F-HR, filed up to 45 days after the quarter ends — they are delayed, are not real-time trades, exclude short positions and most non-US securities, and are not investment advice. Any increase/decrease is a reported change between two quarterly snapshots, not a same-day purchase or sale. These are quarter-end snapshots from the 13F filings on SEC EDGAR, filed within 45 days — not real-time, and any change is a difference between two quarterly reports, not a same-day trade. Informational only — not financial advice.

Short interest (FINRA)
GLIBK had 2,801,415 shares of reported short interest as of the 2026-09-15 FINRA settlement date (delayed, bi-monthly; not real-time).
Short interest as a percent of shares outstanding is not shown for GLIBK because we do not hold a verified share count to divide it by. The reported figures above are unaffected.
- Reported short interest (shares) 2,801,415
- Prior settlement (shares) 2,898,434
- Reported change -3.35%
- Days to cover (reported) 10.65
Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-09-15 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
