Extreme Short Interest: COHR
Coherent (COHR) has emerged as a high-conviction target for short sellers, with current data showing a staggering 59.5% of its free float held in short positions. This level of bearish sentiment is significantly elevated compared to historical averages, placing the stock at the top of current short-squeeze watchlists.
Squeeze Risk Assessment
With a days-to-cover ratio of 72, the liquidity required for short sellers to exit their positions is substantial. Any positive price catalyst could trigger a rapid covering event, as the sheer volume of shorted shares relative to daily trading volume creates a high-risk environment for those currently short. Market participants are advised to monitor daily short volume spikes, as these often precede further accumulation of bearish bets in high-SI names like Coherent.
