ⓘ Short interest from FINRA via Yahoo Finance (biweekly, ~2–3 week lag). Cost-to-borrow & shares-available from the Interactive Brokers feed via iBorrowDesk (as of 2026-07-03) — the free proxy for utilization. Daily short-sale volume from the FINRA consolidated daily file (2026-07-02) — the fresh short pulse vs the ~2-week-lagged biweekly SI. SEC FTD files are aggregate balances and can lag the trading setup. Price, volume, and technicals from market data. Last updated: Jul 6, 02:18 PM

Rising FTD balance — SEC aggregate fails-to-deliver balances are rising versus the prior file. This is settlement-pressure context, not proof of naked shorting. Score boosted +2.
Active offering — a recent priced offering (424B/S-1) pumps supply straight into the squeeze. Score reduced -6.
