Stocks Taking Flight: High-Volume Movers, Short Squeeze Setups, and Speculative Surges
DENVER, Colo., Jul 23, 2025 (247marketnews.com)- The market is lighting up into the close with a fresh wave of speculative activity, technical breakouts, and potential short squeeze setups fueling impressive upside across several tickers.
Kohl’s (NYSE:KSS), GoPro (NASDAQ:GPRO), Krispy Kreme (NASDAQ:DNUT), Koss (NASDAQ:KOSS), Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:BYND), and 1-800-FLOWERS.COM (NASDAQ:FLWS) all surged on a wave of short squeeze speculation. Traders are closely watching these high-short-interest names as technical momentum builds and buyers continue to press in.
Venu (NYSE:VENU) is emerging as a top watch for short squeeze traders. The company will officially close its Regulation A Preferred Stock Offering on Friday, July 25, 2025, with final investments accepted through tomorrow.
During the Reg A period, the $15 preferred share price likely acted as a soft cap. Now, with the offering window closing, shares are poised to trade more freely, especially with an independent analyst price target of $22.30 from Cenorium AG, which called VENU’s business model “compelling,” citing explosive revenue growth projections from $17.8 million in 2024 to $600 million by 2029. “Venu is redefining how live entertainment is experienced in targeted U.S. markets,” Cenorium stated, highlighting key partnerships with AEG Presents and Aramark (NYSE:ARMK), which invested $10.25 million at a premium.
Share Structure Note:
- Shares Outstanding: 37.52 million
- Public Float: 4.04 million
- Short Interest: 266,612 shares (approx. 8 days to cover, per NYSE data)
Key Developments:
- CEO J.W. Roth invested $5 million in the Company’s Luxe FireSuites at McKinney and El Paso venues, and plans to increase that to $20 million in the next year.
- Luxe FireSuites revenue jumped 250% year-over-year to $77.7 million in 2024, on track for $300 million in 2025 combined with new NNN leaseback offerings.
- VENU retained Texas Capital Securities to secure $200 million in non-dilutive private debt, supporting aggressive expansion without equity dilution.
With tightly held shares, a robust pipeline of 20 venues (250,000 seats by 2028), and a low float, VENU is a breakout candidate both fundamentally and technically.
Lulu’s (NASDAQ:LVLU) jumped after regaining Nasdaq compliance, with its share price maintaining above the $1 minimum bid threshold for 10 consecutive trading days. The company is once again in good standing, potentially opening the door for institutional re-entry.
Siyata Mobile (NASDAQ:SYTA) is seeing speculative volume as it nears a $185 million merger with Core Gaming, which boasts 43 million monthly active users. The new entity is targeting $100 million in 2025 revenue, a massive transformation from Siyata’s legacy business model.
Polyrizon (NASDAQ:PLRZ) continued higher following positive preclinical data for its PL-14 Allergy Blocker. With 60%+ deposition efficiency confirmed in nasal vestibules, the treatment shows promise in targeting airborne allergens with high precision.
Aehr Test Systems (NASDAQ:AEHR) extended gains after revealing follow-on orders from a major AI hyperscaler. The customer doubled its previous order, locking in eight new Sonoma ultra-high-power systems to support next-gen AI chip burn-in testing—adding fuel to the semiconductor rally.
INVO Bioscience (NASDAQ:INVO) remains in play amid elevated interest and high retail chatter. With ongoing traction in fertility and women’s health spaces, INVO is being closely tracked for potential continuation into the week.
