The world’s least risky AI stock? (Ad)

Whitney Tilson, senior editor at Stansberry Research, has identified a company he calls the world's safest AI stock, one most investors have never heard of. The firm sits at the intersection of AI, energy, and defense, and one of America's most famous investors reportedly put roughly half his fund into it. In recent years it has returned more than Apple, Amazon, and the S&P 500 combined. Tilson has released a free presentation naming the company and its ticker symbol, no payment or email required.tc pixel

This kind of early access is normally reserved for elite insiders. Robinson's research points to one opportunity worth a closer look now.tc pixel

Short selling SLGL is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from Sol-Gel Technologies as its price is falling. SLGL shares are trading up $12.54 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 Sol-Gel Technologies 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 SLGL, 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 SLGL, 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 SLGL:

  • 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.
