$NFE's Short-Squeeze Setup Sparks Fervor
Across multiple posts, users pointed to the same data points: short interest at 54% to 55%, days to cover of 3.27, and a cost to borrow that recently hit 90% and remained above 74%. One top post noted that the borrow supply frequently hits zero, forcing shorts to cover through dark pools. "Price refuses to break down," the author wrote, calling it "a squeeze waiting to happen."
Another detailed analysis pegged the squeeze's trigger levels at a break above $1.17 and then the $1.20s, combined with a volume spike and the cost to borrow climbing back to 100%. The author predicted a move could come within 10 days. A separate thread highlighted the role of dark pool volume, arguing that off-exchange trading is "doing the heavy lifting" to suppress price discovery.
Bearish Undercurrents Among the Bullish Noise
Not every poster was convinced. A skeptical thread asked, "What are people seeing in NFE?" and pointed to two consecutive earnings misses, mounting debt, and bankruptcy risk. The author questioned whether retail investors have the buying power to absorb the "millions of shares" that hedge funds could dump. The response from the bulls was consistent: fundamentals don't matter for a squeeze play; only the short-interest and borrow dynamics matter.
Sentiment: 65% bullish, 23% bearish, 12% neutral.
The debate captured the classic tension in squeeze plays: a heavily shorted, distressed company with a passionate retail following versus fundamental metrics that give skeptics pause. However, for the day's conversation, the bulls carried the volume.
No same-day company-specific news was available, meaning the discussion was entirely self-generated by the community's monitoring of short-interest data and price action on November 25.
