Most Shorted Stocks Today: July 14, 2026 — Top 25 Squeeze Candidates
On July 14, 2026, Groupon (GRPN) leads Tapeboard's short squeeze board with a score of 54.4 on 67.5% short interest and a 6.1-day cover ratio, while the rest of the top 25 is filled out by lower-liquidity OTC tickers carrying no reportable short-interest or borrow-fee data.
On July 14, 2026, GRPN tops Tapeboard's short squeeze screen with a score of 54.4, the only name on today's board carrying a complete set of reportable short interest, borrow fee, and days to cover data — 67.5% of float sold short, a 1.4% annualized fee, and 6.1 days to cover at recent volume. The other 19 names on the list are lower-liquidity, mostly OTC-traded tickers that cleared the screen but carry no reportable short-interest, borrow-fee, or days-to-cover figures, so each sits at a flat score of 53.8. GRPN is also the only ticker on today's list flagged on the FINRA threshold list.

The Top 5 Names to Watch on July 14, 2026
5. GRPN — Squeeze Score 54.4
GRPN is the one fully-scored setup on today's board: short interest sits at 67.5% of float, the annualized borrow fee is 1.4%, and days to cover runs 6.1 at recent volume. Shares closed at $25.80 after a five-day slide of -4.7%, and the stock is currently on the FINRA threshold list, meaning short volume has cleared 50% of total volume on at least one of the last seven sessions. This reads as a high-float-utilization setup rather than a high-fee one — borrowing the stock isn't expensive right now, so the pressure comes from how much of the tradable float is already committed to short positions rather than from a scarce, costly loan market. A squeeze here would need buying volume strong enough to force covering across that 67.5% float commitment, or continued threshold-level short volume to keep compressing the shares available to borrow.
14. ABSKF — Squeeze Score 53.8
ABSKF cleared the screen at a score of 53.8, but FINRA and IBKR don't currently carry reportable short interest, borrow fee, or days-to-cover data for this OTC-traded name, and it isn't on the FINRA threshold list. Shares trade at $1.01. With none of the underlying short-pressure inputs available, there's no measurable squeeze mechanic to point to — the score reflects the screen surfacing the ticker, not confirmed short-covering pressure, and that would only change if FINRA or IBKR begin reporting data on the name.
17. ACCEF — Squeeze Score 53.8
ACCEF also scores 53.8 with the same data gap as ABSKF: no reportable short interest, borrow fee, or days-to-cover figure, and no FINRA threshold flag. Shares trade at $9.31. As with the other unscored names on this list, the absence of stock-loan and short-volume data means there's nothing quantifiable behind the score yet — it marks inclusion on Tapeboard's screen rather than a verified short-covering setup.
22. ACIRF — Squeeze Score 53.8
ACIRF carries the same 53.8 score with no reportable short interest, borrow fee, or days-to-cover data, and no threshold flag. Shares last traded at $0.96. Until FINRA short-volume data or IBKR stock-loan data becomes available for this ticker, the case for a squeeze here can't be quantified beyond the screen result itself.
24. ACKAF — Squeeze Score 53.8
ACKAF rounds out the top five at a score of 53.8, again with no reportable short interest, borrow fee, or days-to-cover figure and no FINRA threshold flag. Shares trade at $4.61. The pattern across ABSKF, ACCEF, ACIRF, and ACKAF is the same: these are lower-liquidity names surfaced by the screen without the corroborating short-interest or borrow-cost data that would turn a score into an actionable squeeze setup.
Stocks Flagged on the FINRA Threshold List
The T column marks names on the FINRA threshold list — tickers where short volume has run at or above 50% of total volume on at least one of the last seven trading days, per FINRA's Consolidated NMS daily short-volume file. On July 14, 2026, GRPN is the only name on today's board carrying that flag; none of the other 19 tickers register threshold-level short volume. See the full scoring breakdown for how the flag factors into the overall score.
How the Score Is Built
Tapeboard's squeeze score weights five inputs: 35% short interest as a percentage of float (FINRA), 25% borrow fee (IBKR stock-loan data), 20% float utilization, 15% days to cover, and 5% five-day price momentum (Schwab). When an input isn't reportable for a given ticker, as with most of today's list beyond GRPN, the score is built from whatever inputs are available. See the methodology page for the full weighting and calculation breakdown.
