The US stock CAR is currently staging an epic short squeeze battle, with institutions secretly buying 22% of the shares, the market maker holding over 50, and institutional short positions owing 100% of the shares. Currently, it's still at a high level. As a short seller, I definitely plan to short and support the institutions.

Supporting institutions? Institutions are not philanthropists either. If they suddenly turn around and trigger a short squeeze, retail investors are the most likely to become fuel.

Air Force One is taking off; remember to set your stop-loss and avoid getting wiped out.

I am more concerned about the borrowing rate and maturity pressure; the side that has the advantage in time will determine who wins.

This ticket is so exciting; watching the short squeeze makes my scalp tingle.

If it really is institutions holding short positions, the most feared thing is that they suddenly choose to admit defeat and cover, instantly turning into a rocket.

You can understand the institutions on your side, but institutions also backstab each other; don't treat them as a united front.

Your logic is a bit intense: still shorting at high levels, but in a short squeeze situation, "high level" might just be halfway up the mountain.

Pay attention to trading volume, short covering data, and the options chain; relying solely on narratives can easily lead to being manipulated.

Shorting at high levels sounds very cool, but think about the GME pattern—rationality would be crushed by the market's momentum.

It's okay to be cautious; take it in batches, with small positions, only using the amount you can afford to lose, otherwise a single strong bullish candle can wipe you out.
