How INSM got to 17 / 100

The INSM squeeze score is a weighted sum of five normalized components, short interest as a percentage of float, IBKR borrow fee, float utilization, days to cover, and trailing 5-day price momentum. Each component is z-scored against a universe of roughly 500 active US equities, then combined with the weights shown below.

Frequently asked questions about INSM squeeze risk

What does a Short Squeeze Score of 17 / 100 mean for INSM?

A score of 17/100 for INSM indicates the structural squeeze conditions are weak today. That can change fast, short interest reports settle bi-monthly, and borrow fees can spike intraday on adverse news.

How fresh is the INSM squeeze data?

INSM's score recomputes once daily after the US market close (typically by 9 PM ET). Borrow fee, float utilization, and momentum refresh daily and are live. Short interest carries the most recent FINRA settlement date and is held between readings, because FINRA publishes short interest on a settlement schedule, not daily. That is why the SI %Float row above is stamped with its own as-of date. Real-time short interest does not exist publicly in US markets.

Is INSM on the FINRA threshold list?

As of the most recent FINRA file, INSM is not on the threshold list. The list is published end-of-day and a ticker can move on or off based on cumulative settlement failures over rolling five-day windows. See stocks currently on the threshold list.
