$NUTX Short interest right now is at 32%. If the stock holds above $210 for 2 weeks or crosses $225, it will cause absolute panic with the shorts. We will see a lot of buying pressure due to a massive short squeeze, and the price can go up significantly!

$NUTX Holding $200 really well and has bounced off the floor several times. Lots of buyer strength, good stuff and can hopefully expect it to hold until earnings this time next month. 🙏

$NUTX can you imagine looking at these fundamentals and the technicals and vote for a bearish sentiment?🤣

$NUTX The same three Departments responsible for QPA implementation have now formally concluded in another negotiated-rate regime that rates attached to clinically implausible provider/service combinations are sufficiently misleading that insurers must remove them from the dataset. The indurance companies has mislead politicians and the public about QPA and now after this plus TMAIII this will finally be over. 2022-2024 Healthcare providers were bleading and going bankrupt thanks to the cheating by the knsurance companies. NUTX survived and os stronger than ever and the short-sellers will be punished.

$NUTX i noticed as of sept 15 the short intersst is 1.2 million which is all time high Today must really hurt

$NUTX why do you think the short sellers are so negative. 1.2 million shorts worth 200 million they must think it will collapse. Why? Revenue number was weaker than expected last quarter but what matters the eps was total blow out
