Short Shares Availability

GME / GameStop Corp. short shares availability is shown in the following table. This table shows the number of shares of US:GME available to be shorted at a leading prime brokerage. It is not the total number of shares available to short, nor is it the short interest. This data can be used as a proxy for estimating changes in short interest on an intraday basis, and should be inversely (and loosely) correlated to total short interest. The higher this number is, the lower the short interest is likely to be.

Short Interest

Short Interest is the total number of open short positions of a security. A Short Squeeze is when a company with a high degree of short interest increases in price, which forces short sellers to "cover" their short interest by purchasing actual shares, which in turn drives the price up even further.

8 Penny Stocks That Have Fallen From Grace

2019-07-16 investorplace.com - 2 - A good rule of thumb to follow in investing is that penny stocks usually aren’t good stocks. Most stocks don’t IPO at prices below $10. As such, if a stock is trading below $10 or below $5, it means investors have sold the stock off to those levels, and such big selloffs aren’t typically the result of good fundamentals or news.
