🚀 What is a Short Squeeze? And why can prices suddenly explode?

Have you ever wondered why the price of a stock or commodity (like silver) rises crazily and quickly without warning? The secret often lies in what is known as the "Era of Short Sellers" or the Short Squeeze.

📉 The tale begins with "short selling":

Investors bet on a price drop. They borrow the stock and sell it immediately (for example, at $10), hoping to buy it back later at a lower price (for example, $5) to profit from the difference.

⚠️ The surprise (the opposite scenario):

Instead of dropping, something unexpected happens (a positive news or a buying attack), and the price starts to rise instead of fall!

⛓️ The Trap (The Squeeze):

Here, the "short sellers" find themselves in a predicament! To minimize their losses, they are forced to buy the stock quickly to return it to the lender.

💥 The price explosion:

When these sellers rush to buy "at any cost" to cover their positions, their massive demand adds to the normal demand in the market.. and the result? A sharp and explosive price jump!

In short: The Short Squeeze is when those betting against the market are forced to buy to survive, pushing the price to the top against their will! 📈
