Retail traders seeking out the next big short squeeze might want to think about holding Redbox for a little bit longer. According to Fintel, the stock continues to boast a short interest of 103.5% as of Monday. That remains one of the highest amongst stocks on Wall Street and with short interest that high, there is certainly a chance that it could squeeze again. Social sentiment remains high as well as short squeeze hunters look for stocks specifically with high short interest. The interesting thing with Redbox is that it is set to be acquired by Chicken Soup for the Soul Entertainment (NASDAQ:CSSE) by the end of this year.
