### Comment:
Short squeezes don't just randomly happen, they happen when the stock goes up a little (enough to make people want to buy, and then the shorts lose more and more, and with every buy to cover it is further propelled up). There has to be a catalyst though. See Porche/VW back in the day.

 Agreed.

 And all that takes is someone trying to unload their POS underwritten IPO and giving it a little push when the short interest is high enough so they can unload at a huge profit.
