Squeeze Report — September 8, 2026
The tape is crowded with high-short-interest names, but conviction is scarce: cheap borrow and dilution overhangs are capping most setups. CHPT and ORIC stand out for having both hard squeeze data and near-term catalysts, while the energy complex (UUUU, AESI, CRK) is the only sector cluster showing rotation tailwinds.
Today's top short-squeeze candidates
- #1SLDBSolid Biosciences Inc. Common82
21% of float sold short · 19.6 days to cover · +22% over 20 days · options pricing in the 94th percentile (crowded)
SI 21%DTC 19.6$10.25+22% 20dHealthcare - #2CHPTChargePoint Holdings, Inc.80
A 25% short interest and 15-day cover ratio meet a post-earnings gamma ramp, but a negative equity balance keeps this a two-week trade, not a thesis.

35% of float sold short · 13.2 days to cover · +3% over 20 days

SI 22%DTC 12.6$55.99+13% 20dHealthcare - #7CRKComstock Resources, Inc.79
A 31% short interest and 13-day cover ratio are undermined by 0.3% borrow fees, so the SOCAR deal must actually close to force covering.
