Interesting name that “jump” out is $SIRI. Name continues to have elevated short interest. This name also take into account good grades” from our Short Interest Performance rankings (more info). Basically - when the shorts enter a stock, do they usually get squeezed out when the stock advances (aka a “short squeeze”), or are they “smart” short sellers and the stock usually declines when the shorts start accumulating positions. Very key information to know when viewing short data!
