Squeeze Risk
US stocks ranked by a composite short-squeeze score: a weighted blend of six peer-relative factors — short interest as a percentage of shares outstanding, days to cover, how far the price trades above its trailing VWAP, the short-volume trend, the change in short interest, and fails-to-deliver pressure — plus catalyst boosts when an unusual price spike or volume surge is already running against the shorts, or a scheduled earnings call is only days away. This screening index is not a squeeze probability. Borrow costs, lendable supply, and free float are not measured. Open a stock's Short Interest tab for its separate near-term options positioning and gamma sensitivity; those figures do not change the ranking. Settlement date Oct 30, 2026 (14 days ago).
