Movement Alert｜Avis Budget Group Rises 5.19% in Regular Trading, Short Squeeze Volatility Continues

Market Focus05-22 23:30

On May 22, Avis Budget Group (CAR) rose 5.19% in regular trading, trading at $165.30/share, with trading volume of $25.27 million. The stock continues to exhibit extreme volatility driven by an ongoing short squeeze dynamic.

On the news front, the stock has been caught in a fierce tug-of-war between short covering and momentum buying against a backdrop of weak fundamentals. Earlier, Warren Buffett cited Avis as a prime example of unprecedented gambling sentiment in the current U.S. equity market during a CNBC interview at the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting. The company reported Q1 revenue of $2.53 billion but posted a net loss of $234 million, with EPS at -$18.88 and a negative book value of -$96.74 per share.

The stock declined 5.2% on May 18 to $144.0 before rebounding 5.48% on May 21 to $160.67, illustrating the pronounced oscillation pattern. Within the Passenger Ground Transportation sector, peer Hertz Global Holdings rose 3.06% in sympathy, reflecting broader rental industry linkage.
