Short Squeeze

Short sellers are investors who borrow stocks and then sell them in hopes of buying them back at a lower price in the future. When there is a sudden rise in the stock price, these short sellers are forced to buy back the stocks at a higher price, resulting in a loss. This is known as a short squeeze and can be a risky strategy for investors.
