Whitney Tilson of Stansberry Research says one of them has returned more than Apple, Amazon, and the S&P 500 index combined in recent years. One well-known Wall Street money manager reportedly has roughly half his entire fund in this stock. Tilson's free write-up names the company and ticker, with no subscription required.tc pixel

Musk says UBI is coming. I say it's already here. (Ad)

Elon Musk says AI could make money irrelevant by 2036. One income program already exists today, funded not by robots but by America's oil and gas infrastructure. It's called the Patriot Income Plan, or P.I.P., and it pays 10% a year across 42 separate distribution dates. This year it's on track to pay out a record 53 billion dollars. Think of it as a personal stake in the world's largest energy producer, structured to deliver income on a regular schedule.tc pixel

Short selling RUN is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from Sunrun as its price is falling. RUN shares are trading down $0.36 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 Sunrun 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 RUN, 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 RUN, twice per month. The most recent reporting period available is July, 31 2026.

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

  • 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.
