HUBC — 94.8% short, 30+ straight days failing to deliver, and today it spiked to $0.96 before fading. The real float is practically 0%. This isn't hype it's on the Nasdaq/SEC/FINRA record.
**Update (Tue, post-close).** People keep asking the same question: do we hold? Yes. We f**cking hold. Scroll to the bottom for the only answer that matters. First, here's the entire setup — primary sources only, no fake deadlines, no hopium. Every number traces back to Nasdaq, the SEC, or FINRA. Check them yourself.

## The tape — last three sessions
- **Fri May 29:** **1.37 BILLION shares** traded — a record for this name — touched **$0.63** intraday
- **Mon Jun 1:** ran to **$0.57**, closed **$0.515** on 417M shares
- **Tue Jun 2 (today):** **spiked to a $0.96 high** — within four cents of reclaiming the $1.00 Nasdaq bid — on 543M shares, faded to close **~$0.48**, then **ran back to $0.57 in after-hours**
A 1.3M-share company traded **2.3 billion shares in three days.** Let that sink in. The only way that happens is if the same shares are being sold short and recycled over and over.

## THE SMOKING GUN: 15 filers report 230.8% of the float
I pulled every Schedule 13G/13D filed on HUBC straight from SEC EDGAR and added them up. **As of end of day today, 15 separate filers report owning 2,959,061 shares — against a float of only 1,282,052.**
| Filer | Shares | Date Filed |
|---|---:|---:|
| #1 | 766,368 | 06/01/2026 |
| #2 | 450,000 | 06/01/2026 |
| #3 | 200,000 | 05/28/2026 |
| #4 | 194,000 | 06/01/2026 |
| #5 | 150,000 | 06/01/2026 |
| #6 | 150,000 | 05/20/2026 |
| #7 | 144,000 | 06/01/2026 |
| #8 | 130,500 | 06/02/2026 |
| #9 | 128,022 | 05/27/2026 |
| #10 | 125,000 | 06/02/2026 |
| #11 | 122,251 | 06/02/2026 |
| #12 | 120,750 | 05/18/2026 |
| #13 | 115,385 | 05/08/2026 |
| #14 | 95,000 | 06/02/2026 |
| #15 | 67,785 | 05/20/2026 |
| **TOTAL · 15 filers** | **2,959,061** | |
**Float: 1,282,052 shares. Reported ownership: 2,959,061. That's +1,677,009 OVER the float — 230.8% of every share that exists.**
- **Filer #1 alone reports 766,368 shares — 59.8% of the ENTIRE float by one person.**
- The top two filers report **94.9% of the float** combined.
- Look at the dates: **filings landed June 1 and June 2.** People are still filing disclosures *this week,* while the stock spikes.
It is mathematically impossible for 15 people to legitimately own 2.3× the shares that exist. The only way this math works is if short sellers manufactured shares that were never issued — phantom longs sitting on top of real ones. Every one of these filers expects to be holding a real share. When the buy-ins hit, there aren't enough real shares to go around. **That is the squeeze, in black and white, on SEC letterhead.**

## Where we stand
- **Breakout from $0.11** → printed a **$0.96 high today**, settling back to **~$0.48**
- **94.8% official short interest** — 1,215,803 shares vs. 1,282,052 total outstanding
- **~241% real short interest** when measured against the actual tradeable free float
- **$0 shares available to borrow** — fee around 76% and climbing
- **Real free float: practically 0%** — 15 disclosed 13G/13D filers report **2,959,061 shares = 230.8% of the float** (their own SEC filings, as of EOD today). That's **1,677,009 more shares than exist** — and new filings are still landing *this week.*
That combination is the whole story. There is no borrow, short interest is nearly the entire share count, and the stock has been failing to settle for over a month.

## Verified — every line checks out
- **On the Reg SHO threshold list 30+ trading days straight.** Every day since April 20. Settlement failures so persistent the exchange flags it daily. *(Nasdaq threshold files)*
- **Brokers are under a forced close-out obligation.** Persistent fails trigger pre-borrow + buy-in rules. With zero borrow available, that mandatory buying has to hit the open market. *(SEC Reg SHO Rule 203/204)*
- **13G/13D holders report 230.8% of the float — more than 2× what exists.** I pulled and parsed **every Schedule 13G/13D filing** directly from SEC EDGAR: **15 unique filers = 2,959,061 shares** vs. a **1,282,052** float. That's **+1,677,009 shares over the entire float.** They can't all hold shares that don't exist… unless shorts created them. Full table below. *(SEC 13G/13D filings, verified directly — see dedicated section)*
- **Short interest sits at 94.8% of outstanding** — 1,215,803 shares short against 1,282,052 total. *(FINRA short interest)*
## The catalysts — and exactly when they land
| When | Catalyst | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| **Every day this week** | Threshold list + borrow desk | As long as it stays on the list with **$0 to borrow**, the pressure is ON. Shares appearing to borrow, or dropping off the list, = pressure leaking. Check both daily. |
| **~Jun 9–10** | New FINRA short-interest report | Covers May 29 data. Last print was **94.8%**, up from ~24% a month earlier. If it climbs again, the trap is tightening — officially. |
| **By Jun 17** | Reg SHO forced close-out window | The persistent fails flagged since April carry a hard buy-in clock. Community read is shorts have to close out the outstanding FTDs by **~June 17** with **zero borrow available** — every share covered has to be bought on the open market. |
| **~Mid-June** | New SEC fail-to-deliver data | **Post-May 13 FTD data is UNRELEASED until mid-June** — i.e. the numbers covering the billion-share days. May 12 = **118,527** and May 13 = **45,394** shares failed; the big ones are still hidden. |
| **Ongoing** | $1.00 Nasdaq compliance + $35M MLVS path | The scramble to reclaim $1.00 bid compliance (today's $0.96 print got within four cents) — or hold a **$35M market value of listed securities for 10 straight days** as the alternative standard — is the structural trigger underneath all of this. |

## Know the risks — eyes open
- ** Dilution.** ~41.4M new shares printed from convertible notes since Apr 1, and still converting. That's what feeds the giant volume days. Watch EDGAR.
- ** No CEO.** Noah Hershcoviz quit Mar 31, 2026 — effective immediately, off the board too (stock fell ~10% that day). Two months later, still no permanent CEO, just the chairperson holding it together.
- ** No news.** Silence usually means something's cooking. Maybe they're heads-down closing the **$125M Ferrox** acquisition. Or maybe a bigger company is moving to buy *them* — firms go quiet when a deal is being papered. Quiet ≠ nothing.

I know none of this makes much sense on paper — **but that's exactly why I like it.** High risk, high reward.

## Do we hold? Yes. We f***ing hold.
People keep asking the same thing over and over: *Do we keep holding? Do we buy? Do we hold?* The answer is **yes.** This should rip to a number nobody can put a ceiling on.
Every share you sell is a share a short seller buys back to cover — you're literally handing them the ammunition to keep shorting you. There is **no borrow**. They have to buy from *someone*. Don't be that someone.
**Stop selling. Stop feeding them. Just hold.**
