Earnings season is delivering a dense cluster of binary events, with IT, VYX, PGEN, TMDX, and TVTX all reporting by August 6. The standout setup is the collision of extreme days-to-cover and active buybacks in names like FOUR and NTST, though fundamental fragility keeps most in the medium-confidence tier.

  6. #6QUREuniQure N.V. Ordinary Shares77

  8. #8RHIRobert Half Inc.75

  11. #11IBRXImmunityBio, Inc. Common Stock74

    Short interest exceeding 118% of float is the most extreme technical setup today, but a going-concern warning makes this a fundamental knife-catch.
