Squeeze Report — October 15, 2026

The tape is bifurcated: TAL and SEI show genuine squeeze fuel, but most of today's high-short-interest names are undermined by cheap borrow, dilution, or insider selling. The recurring theme is a market regime rotating away from biotech and speculative tech, leaving static short-interest screens looking hollow.
