2 Possible Short Squeezes in 2022
When someone bets against a stock and shorts it, they are selling an investment they don't currently own. And that creates the obligation to eventually buy it back at a later date. The risk here is that the stock's price takes off in value -- resulting in losses for the speculative investor. In an extreme situation, there can be a short squeeze where many short-sellers are rushing to cover their positions, thus driving a stock's price up even higher.
Two stocks that could result in possible short squeezes this year are Teladoc Health (NYSE: TDOC) and Beyond Meat (NASDAQ: BYND). These are solid businesses that possess some incredible growth potential that I wouldn't dare bet against.
