[PREDICTION] How will BBBY close on Friday 12/8?
Meme mania has returned to the stock market. $Bed Bath & Beyond(BBBY)$ was becoming one of the most popular stocks in the stock market. In the past five days, BBBY shares have gained 70 percent, reaching a two-month high of US$11.4 a share on Monday before falling 14 percent on Tuesday. Furthermore, AMC and GME were also on the rise, AMC was up 6.72% , and $GameStop(GME)$ was up 17.67% on Monday.What's going on? $Bed Bath & Beyond(BBBY)$ have rabid followings among individual investors on Reddit and other social media sites. These investors are hoping to punish professional hedge funds and big institutional firms who have bet against these stocks by short-selling them. As retail investors flock to these popularly shorted stocks, the short squeeze takes effect, forcing bearish investors hoping for losses in these stocks to buy back shares at a higher price.
What is short squeeze?
A short squeeze refers to an investor borrowing shares at what they believe is a premium price in hopes of the stock falling. The investor or short seller’s goal is to buy the stock at a lower price after selling at the borrowed premium price. But, if the stock price rises instead of falls, a short squeeze can occur, which typically prompts panicked short sellers to exit their positions as quickly as possible by executing buy orders to purchase the stock, forcing the stock price to climb even higher.
At the same time, new investors or retail investors like we’ve seen in the past during the Reddit Revolution may also start buying the stock. Either speculation or investment fundamentals prompt this buying, which drives the stock even higher. Although short squeezes are profitable, if you fail to exit at the right time, you can lose all profits, as many of these stocks have poor investment fundamentals.Recently, I have seen many investors giving BBBY target price such as these:I would like to invite you to share your thoughts about BBBY and your prediction of its closing price.
