Frequently asked questions about SO squeeze risk
What does a Short Squeeze Score of 32 / 100 mean for SO?
A score of 32/100 for SO 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 often does the SO squeeze score update?
The squeeze score recomputes once daily after the US market close (typically by 9 PM ET, after FINRA settlement files post). Borrow fee and float utilization refresh daily; short interest refreshes bi-monthly on FINRA's settlement schedule with a roughly 10-business-day delay. Real-time short interest does not exist publicly in US markets.
Is SO on the FINRA threshold list?
As of the most recent FINRA file, SO is not on the threshold list. The list is published end-of-day and a ticker can move on or off based on cumulative settlement failures over rolling five-day windows. See stocks currently on the threshold list.
