Now that SpaceX is public, buy this ticker (no, not SpaceX or Tesla) (Ad)

The SpaceX IPO wasn't the big trade - according to Larry Benedict, founder of The Opportunistic Trader, it was the trigger. Benedict, who delivered a 279% return on cash in 2025 across a 20-year winning streak, says the listing launched what he calls the 'Final Phase of Elon's Master Plan.' He's identified one specific ticker - not SpaceX, Tesla, or any Elon-affiliated company - that he believes could see billions in inflows as this phase unfolds. He calls it his trade of the year.tc pixel

Elon Is Quietly Doubling Down on This Bizarre Asset (Ad)

Yahoo Finance reports this technology 'May Unlock $400 Trillion' - and Bloomberg calls it 'unavoidable.' Elon Musk has been quietly doubling down on it, even attempting to deploy it during his time at DOGE before being shut down. Investing legend Jeff Brown - who identified Bitcoin, Tesla, and Nvidia early - has spent six years analyzing this sector he calls 'W.T.E.' He believes it could be 90 times bigger than AI and 1,900 times bigger than Bitcoin.tc pixel

Short selling EME is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from EMCOR Group as its price is falling. EME shares are trading down $29.90 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 EMCOR Group 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 EME, 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 EME, twice per month. The most recent reporting period available is May, 29 2026.

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

  • 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.
