We are introducing our improved short squeeze screen. The idea behind it is simple:
* Heavily shorted stocks,
* where short exposure has increased meaningfully very recently and
* where the stock price is rising fast,
create the perfect conditions for squeezes. Weak short hands could be forced out on market-moving news.
The screen highlights those companies that are reporting earnings in the next 14 days, providing a potential catalyst for a squeeze. (See the columns in red on the right hand side.)
Our Short Update report, which contains this model, details on where short investors are increasing exposure and charts of stocks with spikes and drops in short interest, can be found here: SU 20171018
