Squeeze Report — July 8, 2026
A wave of heavily shorted names—from biotech to consumer—are rallying into catalysts, but the real tension is between those where shorts are trapped (TGTX, WEN) and those where the squeeze may have already deflated (GRPN, ACHC). The most interesting setups combine rising short interest with a credible fundamental trigger, not just a high SI%.
