A list of the current most shorted stocks right now can be a great place to look for potential deep dip value buys. The stocks with the highest short interest across on major U.S. stock exchanges is a good list to watch and stay updated on for short squeeze opportunities.  

The below company stocks have the highest percentage of their share float borrowed to sell short. These short positions reveal built in future buying pressure as the shares short must eventually be bought back to cover. These stocks are the ones in the highest danger of short squeezes after the bears may have overstayed their welcome. Bears that failed to lock in their profit late in a high short interest stock can get a big upside surprise with any bullish news event that brings hope back for the stock to go higher. Selling short goes against the long term trend in the stock market and stocks getting on the most shorted stock list can be bullish for a stock signaling it is about to rally higher after reaching one of the highest levels of short interest. 

The NASDAQ short interest is updated twice a month. Short interest data is reported on mid-month and end-of-month settlement dates for NASDAQ listed stocks. Most exchanges do month end reporting on short interest. So it is constantly updating and changing but is delayed in reporting.
