Punishing Borrow Costs
EverCommerce (EVCM) is currently experiencing one of the most expensive borrowing environments in the software sector. Ortex reports that the cost to borrow has spiked to 87.7% APR. This extreme cost, combined with a high short score of 96 out of 100, indicates that short sellers are facing significant financial pressure to maintain their positions.
Squeeze Potential
The stock carries a Days-to-Cover (DTC) of 23.5 days, suggesting that any sustained buying pressure could lead to a prolonged covering event. The combination of high short interest and prohibitive borrow fees is concentrating options activity into call options, as traders look to capitalize on the potential for forced short covering.
