Trump's Next Move Could Shrink Your Dollar (Ad)

There's a plan in Washington being called the 'Mar-a-Lago Accord' - a deliberate strategy to weaken the U.S. dollar through tariffs, currency pressure, and coordinated policy shifts designed to boost American exports. A weaker dollar means every dollar you've saved buys less - quietly, without a headline or a warning. Smart investors are already repositioning before the slide accelerates.tc pixel

BofA: Digital Dollar Coming 2025-2030 (Ad)

If your money lives inside one bank, pay close attention. On December 1st, 2025, a Congressional committee published a report that documented at least 30 companies and individuals who lost their bank accounts between 2022-2024. A government digital currency would make banks' abilities to freeze accounts instant and automatic. FedNow, created by the Federal Reserve, has been installed into over 1,500 banks already. The rails for a digital dollar could already be live. But a parallel system already exists where no bank, no government, can freeze you, allowing you to opt out of any government control… or potential Digital Dollar.tc pixel

Short selling ROAD is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from Construction Partners as its price is falling. ROAD shares are trading up $0.08 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 Construction Partners 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 ROAD, 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 ROAD, twice per month. The most recent reporting period available is July, 15 2026.

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

  • 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.
