Aug 12 — Squeeze fuel meets AI contract catalysts
The broad tape is slightly soft — the S&P is down about 1.2% open-to-close over the last five sessions — yet 400 names made the scan, so the energy is in individual stories, not the index.
VELO — gapped up ~26% after a Q2 earnings beat (sales of $20.7M vs a $13.5M estimate) into 35.6% short interest with 3.1 days to cover — the classic setup where a positive surprise meets a crowded short and forced buying can amplify the move.
NBIS — a $226 name up ~17% on 8.4× normal volume after exec comments on $20M+/megawatt AI-cloud contracts, plus ~30% short interest — a reminder that squeeze mechanics aren't just a small-cap thing.
NBIG — the day's top score with a 34% gap on 9× volume and 30.8% short interest, but no tagged headline — a no-news gap is your cue to ask what's actually driving it before assuming the move has legs.
