HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS: The "timing scores" and "regime signals" displayed are based on quantitative models. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading.

The most shorted stocks are companies with high short interest — a large percentage of shares sold short relative to the float. Our short interest score ranks stocks from 0-100, with lower scores indicating heavier short selling.
Heavily shorted stocks carry higher risk but can also present opportunities. A short squeeze occurs when a heavily shorted stock rises, forcing short sellers to buy shares to cover their positions, further driving up the price.
Our short interest factor incorporates short interest ratio data, ranking each stock from 0-100 relative to the broader universe. Stocks with scores below 25 have the heaviest short selling activity.
