Labor Day Warning: The secret that called 1929 is flashing something new (Ad)

In 1929, a young researcher named Irving Weiss spotted warning signs Wall Street ignored - then watched the Dow crash nearly 13% in a single day, followed by another 12% drop the next. His research became Weiss Ratings, a system The Wall Street Journal ranked number one for investment performance. It also called the Dot-Com Bust, the 2008 crisis, and the 2020 crash. Now the system is flagging a possible shift in the back half of 2026, separating stocks it flags as vulnerable from those positioned to climb.tc pixel

Short selling ACMR is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from ACM Research as its price is falling. ACMR shares are trading up $5.02 today. To short a stock, an investor borrows shares, sells them and buys the shares back on the public market later to return it to the lender. Short sellers are betting that a stock will decline in price. If the stock does drop after selling, the short seller buys it back at a lower price and returns it to the lender. The difference between the sell price and the buy price is the trader's profit.

A short squeeze for ACM Research occurs when it has a large amount of short interest and its stock increases in price. This forces short sellers to cover their short interest positions by buying actual shares of ACMR, which in turn drives the price of the stock up even further.

Short interest is typically published by a stock exchange once per month. However, NASDAQ publishes a report for U.S. stocks, including ACMR, twice per month. The most recent reporting period available is August, 14 2026.

Understanding short interest metrics can help you assess how traders are positioning around a stock like ACMR:

  • Shares Sold Short: The total number of shares that have been sold by short sellers but have not yet been covered or closed out. A high number may indicate bearish sentiment.
  • Short Float: The percentage of a company’s publicly available shares (or "float") that are sold short. A higher short float suggests a greater portion of the stock is being bet against.
  • Days to Cover (Short Interest Ratio): This estimates how many days it would take short sellers to cover their positions, based on average daily trading volume. Higher values can signal potential for a short squeeze if buying pressure increases.

These metrics are often used by traders to gauge sentiment, volatility risk, and the potential for price movements based on short covering activity.
