How GRAB got to 34 / 100
The GRAB squeeze score is a weighted sum of seven normalized components, short interest as a percentage of float, IBKR borrow fee, float utilization, FINRA CNMS daily short-volume ratio, days to cover, trailing 5-day price momentum, and the borrow fee's 5-day change. Each component is z-scored against a universe of roughly 500 active US equities, then combined with the weights shown below.

Frequently asked questions about GRAB squeeze risk
What does a Short Squeeze Score of 34 / 100 mean for GRAB?
A score of 34/100 for GRAB indicates the structural squeeze conditions are weak today. That can change fast, short interest reports settle bi-monthly, and borrow fees can spike intraday on adverse news.
How fresh is the GRAB squeeze data?
GRAB's score recomputes once daily after the US market close (typically by 9 PM ET). Borrow fee, float utilization, and momentum refresh daily and are live. Short interest is settled as of Aug 31, 2026 and is held between readings, because FINRA publishes short interest on a settlement schedule, not daily. That is why the SI %Float row above is stamped with its own as-of date. Real-time short interest does not exist publicly in US markets.
Is GRAB on the FINRA threshold list?
Yes, GRAB appears on the current FINRA Threshold Securities List, meaning aggregate failures-to-deliver have exceeded the regulatory threshold for at least five consecutive settlement days. Threshold inclusion is a backward-looking confirmation of covering pressure. See all stocks on the threshold list today.
