Gold Miners Post Record Cash Flow Even as Prices Pull Back (Ad)

The four largest gold miners are generating record free cash flow, even with gold pulling back from recent highs. Margins as high as 75 percent make this the most profitable stretch in their history. Yet junior gold miners, the prime buyout targets for these cash-rich majors, are still priced as if gold were stuck at 1800 dollars an ounce instead of today's levels. Analyst Garrett Goggin calls this the Golden Anomaly, a gap he says rarely lasts long once a gold bull market gets going.tc pixel

Short selling JKS is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from JinkoSolar as its price is falling. JKS shares are trading down $0.14 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 JinkoSolar 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 JKS, 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 JKS, 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 JKS:

  • 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.
