Squeeze Report — September 7, 2026
Biotech dominates today's squeeze screen, but the setups are mostly pre-paid: crowded options, cheap borrow, and heavy dilution overhangs cap upside across SLS, SRPT, TGTX, and AMLX. The more interesting tension sits in GRRR, where a 40% short interest and rising borrow costs collide with unresolved fraud allegations.

SI 29%DTC 7.0$35.89+9% 20dHealthcare - #5GRRRGorilla Technology Group Inc.79
40% short interest and an 11% borrow fee, but Culper fraud claims and negative gross margin make this a high-risk, high-reward brawl.
SI 40%DTC 5.2$13.79+5% 20dTechnology - #6TGTXTG Therapeutics, Inc. Common S79
12.6 days to cover and a 40% base rate, but cheap borrow and crowded options pre-pay the move.

34% 20-day run and 28.6% short interest, but ELEVIDYS safety overhang and 100th-percentile IV suggest fade risk on any good news.
