US Stocks with High Short Interest

US stocks with short float of 20% or more — squeeze watch list.

Stocks with short float of 20% or more carry elevated short-squeeze risk. When a heavily shorted name catches a bullish catalyst, forced covering can produce outsized rallies in a matter of days. This list isolates the names where that asymmetry exists; combine with the Days-to-Cover column to gauge how much short interest would need to be unwound, and watch for positive earnings or product catalysts that could trigger covering.

Frequently asked questions

How often is this list updated?
The underlying price, volume, and indicator data refresh once per US trading day after the close. The list itself is cached for 30 minutes; the cache invalidates automatically when the nightly data pipeline writes the next session.
What is "days to cover"?
Days to cover = total shares short ÷ average daily volume. It estimates how many trading days of average volume it would take for shorts to fully exit. Higher values mean a squeeze is more painful for shorts and the move can be larger.
Where does the short-interest data come from?
Short float and days-to-cover are sourced from the score_summary table, which is updated nightly from the latest available bi-monthly exchange short-interest reports.
Can I customize the filters?
