Elevated Short Interest
Groupon (GRPN) has emerged as a primary target for short sellers, with current data showing 65.6% of its float sold short. This level of short interest is exceptionally high, indicating that a significant portion of the market is betting against the company's recovery. The stock is currently showing a days-to-cover ratio of 11.7, which implies that any positive catalyst could trigger a rapid covering event. While the official FINRA short interest figures are updated twice monthly, the current market data suggests that the bearish sentiment remains entrenched. Traders should be aware that high-SI stocks like GRPN are prone to extreme volatility if the borrow fee, currently at 1.1%, begins to spike due to share scarcity.
