No single metric reflects that truth more than the fact that revenues fell by 15.7% to $92.2 million in the first quarter.

Many investors expect BYND stock to fall, considering that more than 46% of Beyond Meat’s float is shorted.

Put succinctly, Big Lots is one of the worst-run discount retailers and offers little in the way of hope. One would think that given inflationary pressures, consumers would be flocking to discount retailers. Right now, it appears investors are flocking to Big Lots’ peers.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Thus, I’d argue that most of the demand for BIG stock is coming from short sellers.
