LCID Short Squeeze Score: 78 / 100
LCID ranked on Tapeboard's 0-100 short squeeze leaderboard · components disclosed below · methodology fully published · score as of Nov 5, 2026
The number on this page is the score as of Nov 5, 2026, the most recent session when this page was rebuilt. Short interest re-settles every two weeks and LCID's borrow fee can spike intraday. Tapeboard re-scores LCID every day after the market close, ranks it against the full live squeeze board, and pairs it with a real-time scanner and watchlist, so you catch the setup changing, not a snapshot.

How LCID got to 78 / 100
Since setup v5 (2026-09-28), a stock is ranked only if its short interest is at least 15% of float. Since setup v6 (2026-10-07), ranked names are scored 0-100 on 20-day volatility with the single largest daily move excluded (60%), 5-day float rotation (20%) and last-session relative volume (20%), each as a percentile among the gated names. A higher score means higher historical odds of a large move in either direction; it is not a directional call. The inputs below (short interest, borrow fee, SI % of float capped, days to cover, momentum, short-volume ratio, fee change) are shown for context at zero weight.
| INPUT (CONTEXT, WEIGHT 0) | VALUE |
|---|---|
| SI %Float | 63.7% @ Oct 15, 2026 |
| Borrow Fee | 13.4% |
| SI % Float (capped) | 63.7% |
| Days to Cover | 8.4 |
| 5-Day Momentum | -6.88% |

How the score is calculated
Tapeboard's short squeeze score (setup v6) gates on short interest of at least 15% of float (FINRA settlement, point-in-time and split-safe), then ranks by 60% 20-day volatility percentile (single largest daily move excluded) + 20% 5-day float-rotation percentile + 20% last-session relative-volume percentile. Out of sample, the top 10 moved +20% within five sessions about 17% of the time and fell 20% about 12% of the time, against 4.5% and 2.3% for all stocks. Sources: FINRA consolidated short-interest files for short interest, daily bars for volatility and rotation, broker-dealer stock-loan data for borrow fees (context), and FINRA CNMS daily short sale volume files for the heavy-short-volume flag (context; not the Reg SHO threshold list). The full methodology, including the calibrated odds table and known limitations, is published at /methodology/short-squeeze-score.

Frequently asked questions about LCID squeeze risk
What does a Short Squeeze Score of 78 / 100 mean for LCID?
A score of 78/100 puts LCID near the top of Tapeboard's setup board: among heavily shorted stocks (short interest at least 15% of float) it has some of the highest recent volatility and float turnover. Historically, names ranked 1-25 reached +20% within five sessions about 13-17% of the time and fell 20% about 7-12% of the time, versus 4.5% and 2.3% for all stocks. It flags the odds of a large move in either direction; it is not a buy signal.
How fresh is the LCID squeeze data?
The number on this page is the score as of Nov 5, 2026, the most recent session when this page was rebuilt. LCID's score recomputes once daily after the US market close (typically by 9 PM ET). Volatility and float rotation come from daily price bars; borrow fee and the other context fields refresh daily. Short interest is settled as of Oct 15, 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 LCID on the FINRA threshold list?
Yes, LCID 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.
