Short squeeze monitor: Healthcare
Stocks with the largest share of their tradable float sold short. A high share of float sold short means many traders are betting on a decline. If the price rises instead, short sellers may need to buy shares to close their positions, which can add to the move. Days to cover shows how many average trading days that buying would take.
