My prediction for December 8th (Ad)

Elon doesn't own the chip inside his Teslas or Starlink dishes. He licenses it from one little known public company. Now he's planning 1,000,000 AI satellites in orbit, and every one could pay this company a royalty. Analyst Dylan says the window to get in closes around December 8th, before new money floods into the buildout.tc pixel

Why Iran May Only Be the First Move (Ad)

Two thousand missiles struck Iran. Three days later, Dylan Jovine sat in two private meetings with U.S. Congressmen. No cameras, no staff. What he found afterward points to a coordinated Two-Front Economic War already in motion, according to his research at Behind the Markets.tc pixel

Short selling FIRY is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from Skillz as its price is falling. FIRY shares are trading up $0.34 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 Skillz 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 FIRY, 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 FIRY, twice per month. The most recent reporting period available is October, 15 2026.

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

  • 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.
