Shorts are present, but a bounce here is mostly price, not a squeeze.
Why it's this high: up 125% over the past year and now 53% off the 52-week high, down 34% this quarter. Shorts are still adding into that giveback — the usual bet is that the spike does not fully hold. Volume is heavy, so they can cover in about 1.5 days if it turns.
Share count and days to cover are the latest FINRA settlement. Short % of float is from Finviz. Prints land about twice a month — fuel for a turn, not today's flow.
