T Short Squeeze Score: -
T ranked on Tapeboard's 0-100 short squeeze leaderboard · components disclosed below · methodology fully published
This score isn't static, short interest re-settles every two weeks and T's borrow fee can spike intraday. Tapeboard re-scores T every day, 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. Free, no card.
How T got to -
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, float utilization, days to cover, momentum, short-volume ratio, fee change) are shown for context at zero weight.
Not on today's ranked board. The squeeze board covers stocks with short interest of at least 15% of float and is rebuilt after each session's close.
T 30-day borrow fee and short interest trend
Trailing-30-day series of two of the highest-signal squeeze inputs for T, the borrow fee (cost to short the stock) and short interest as a percentage of float. Free per-ticker borrow-fee history is not published by Fintel or Ortex on their public pages.
Insufficient history, T has fewer than 5 days of squeeze-score data on file. Sparkline returns once the daily ingest accumulates a full 30-day window (typically 2-3 weeks for newly-listed or newly-shorted tickers).
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 T squeeze risk
What does a Short Squeeze Score of - mean for T?
A score of not available for T means it is either low on the setup board (quieter than other heavily shorted names) or not ranked at all (short interest below 15% of float, or incomplete data). Low-ranked gated names historically reached +20% within five sessions about 5% of the time, close to the 4.5% base rate for all stocks.
How fresh is the T squeeze data?
T'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 carries the most recent FINRA settlement date 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 T on the FINRA threshold list?
As of the most recent FINRA file, T 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.
