Beyond Meat (BYND) – Why is nobody talking about this short squeeze setup?
Honest question: why isn’t there more discussion around Beyond Meat right now?
Yeah, the stock is beaten down and sub-$ levels usually mean high risk, especially with listing requirements and fundamentals being a concern. But the short interest is insane… around 32% last I checked. Cost to borrow has been climbing almost daily, shares available to borrow are getting tight, and institutional long positions heavily outweigh shorts.
From a technical + positioning standpoint, this looks like one of those setups where a reversal (or even just a strong bounce) could force significant short covering. If that happens, the move could be violent.
Not saying this is a guaranteed squeeze or even a long-term winner, the business clearly has issues, but the setup feels asymmetric right now.
Am I missing something obvious here? Curious what everyone else thinks.
