What's the difference between this and ShareX?
Cheers.
I wouldn't say so. There are other heavily shorted stocks that have a much higher short ratio because of their small float (e.g. MTCH).
>but is there a good way to determine who?
Short sellers don't have to disclose their positions, unlike investors who're long the stock. You can try to get a better sense of who's thinking what through headlines and analyst notes/reports.
Side note: Elon tweeted out that we'd see the 'burn of the century' (a short squeeze) and that it would be bigger than the VW/Porsche squeeze in 08.
Also, the point about diversification is a valid concern. Would you put (50% of your net worth + loaned money) into only FB/AMZN/XYZ stocks, today (tomorrow)? Probably not.
