01A stock is up 30% on 6x normal volume and short interest looks huge. What does the squeeze-forensics method say to check FIRST?

02Hertz's headline short interest included a huge block that could never be squeezed. Why not?

03The daily short-volume ratio collapsed on the big up day. What does that prove about short covering?

04The trader bought short-dated out-of-the-money calls the morning AFTER the big move. What was the dominant force working against that position?

05The position was cut the next day at a 50% loss. Under the method, was the exit right or wrong?
