CM30 minus CM90. NEGATIVE IS CONTANGO - the normal upward-sloping curve, where longer-dated vol is dearer. POSITIVE IS BACKWARDATION: the near term is bid above the far, which is what stress looks like. Measured across the Core 40, 40.9% of symbol-days are backwardated, so this is not a rare state and a flag keyed to it alone would fire constantly.
39 of 40 with a reading on or before 2026-09-24. Each row is that name against its own history — core.metric_context(), one query for all of them — not a rank among them.
