Short-Squeeze Sparks Rally as Bears Cover Bets
A broad market rally is being driven by short-covering in heavily shorted stocks, with Goldman Sachs’ basket up over 13% this week and S3 Partners estimating about $93 billion of shorts covered this month. While indices rise on hopes tensions with Iran may ease, gains are uneven across sectors. Earnings are expected to grow around 12% year over year, and a generally bullish SPY outlook suggests more upside if results come in strong.
