The largest companies in the SP 500 are now more overvalued relative to fundamentals than they were at the absolute peak of the dot-com era. An MIT study found that 95% of companies investing in AI are seeing zero measurable return - yet the spending continues. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has publicly said investors are 'overexcited' about AI. The investors who survived the dot-com crash weren't the ones who called the bottom - they were the ones who weren't fully exposed when it happened.

Trump's New Dollar (Ad)

Porter Stansberry says President Trump has signed an executive order initiating what he calls a full U.S. dollar reset - and most Americans don't know it's happening. The last time America underwent a monetary shift like this, under Nixon in the 1970s, it minted an average of 1,300 new millionaires a day for over half a century. Stansberry has released a new documentary naming the assets he believes are positioned to surge as a result.tc pixel

Short selling ALHC is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from Alignment Healthcare as its price is falling. ALHC shares are trading up $0.55 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 Alignment Healthcare occurs when it has a large amount of short interest and its stock appreciates in price. This forces short sellers to cover their short interest positions by buying actual shares of ALHC, 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 ALHC, twice per month. The most recent reporting period available is June, 30 2026.

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

  • 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.
