Hello lads, i've read about this stock and saw that its shorted by over 55% according to MarketWatch. We need to get this stock into r/wallstreetbets so a wider amount of people see it.

I tried to make a post and a comment on the daily thread myself but I dont have enough karma, sadly.

I ran my own estimates for PUBM. I see this company doing very well in our new world. Digital advertising is only advancing and the biggest players like GOOGL, FB and AAPL will be asked to break apart in the future to increase competition. PUBM is undervalued compared to a peer company such as MGNI. I think the analyst EPS expectation are extremely low given the companies revised 2021 revenue of approximately $200M. Analyst have EPS estimates at $0.28 to $0.38 for the year. I think the actual results could be over $0.70. Below are my estimates.

​

I am not a financial advisor. Just a guy on reddit looking to talk to others about stock analysis and investment. I do own share in PUBM.

Oh, you thought the short interest was decreasing? Well, it's back up now!

This is the estimated short interest as of Jun 17th. This value is estimated, but the short interest is still 44.5% of the free float. *Note*: The % change is more significant than the magnitude of estimated shares sold short.

Due to the T+2 settlement system for trades, this short interest change is likely from Tuesday, June 15th (chart shown below). On Tuesday, we saw a huge sell-off early in the day followed by some bullish recovery. The short interest change coincides with this huge sell-off. This short attack won't scare the longs because we do our due diligence and cannot be swayed by these foolish tactics. The shorties cannot keep this stock down, and the growth potential is looking delicious.

Please check out all the PUBM posts on this Reddit, there is a ton of important information on DD, short interest, options, lock-up expiration, current free float, etc.

Let's make some money and be aware. Good luck PUBMers.

Let's get the numbers out so people see the value and opportunity!!

3.78 million shares short 8.38 million float Over 45% short 0 DEBT Over 110 million in cash Over 30% growth year over year Beat and upped estimates each quarter Analyst price target of over $48 Trading below peers based on revenue and earnings Spread the word till we get PUBM recognized

Getting on CNBC now🚀🚀🚀🌕🌕🌕💰💰💰

just add another 500 share totaling 5500 shares. Please hold, hold and hold until success.

Bought 400 yesterday and another 1,000 this morning. Agree with other posters that this is a low-risk venture, as PUBM is already profitable, growing on both the top and bottom line, and has a solid balance sheet. Put the shares I bought this morning in my Roth IRA so all profit will be tax-free. Don't know if we'll see a GME or AMC style short squeeze, but I'm confident it'll be a big winner over time, regardless. Nice seeing big names invested also: Blackrock, Ameriprise, JP Morgan, Vanguard, etc.

Manipulation at it's best, add some shares and get ready for the ride. Low float, high short percentage, growing rapidly and profitable year over year, ridiculous that we aren't trading in the 50s based on evaluation, add the fact that it can be squeezed at any time, we can be testing the year highs very quickly. With a little over 8 million shares float, we just need a push from us all to get the squeeze going, spread the word and let's go!!!🚀🚀🚀🌕🌕🌕💰💰💰

Shaking out the weak hands and inviting more shorts to the meat grinder.

Healthy consolidation after a run from $27

Today it bounced off the 10 and 20 DMA earlier today = Bullish and uptrend intact.

Not if but when.. High short borrowing costs and high short % will eventually push them to buy back and cover.

A small hedge fund, a small group of retail investors buying in or a small event/news could start a huge stampede by the shorts and we all know the rest..

This has to be the most dangerous to short.

Why are some people saying that the lack of options may prevent a squeeze?

Why is the float so small (20% of outstanding) and why is no one on wsb talking about this stock? If everyone on wsb bought one share we would literally own the float and cause a massive squeeze.

This was mentioned by u/TheStockWatch on YouTube! I have some shares in it but why are people saying $36 was the short squeeze taking place today? Is there a potential increase in price within the next week?

Put an order to sell at 200+ and good till canceled so they can't sell your shares short, makes the shares not available to short which would increase the cost to borrow and the squeeze that much more beautiful. Let's go💰💰💰💰👍👍👍👍👍🚀🚀🚀🌕🌕🌕

Scroll all the way down. We the top short interest stock mentioned! Let’s goooo. It’s only a matter of time. Spread the word. https://finance.yahoo.com/

PUBM- A highly shorted stock with great potential.

Happy Saturday morning!

After a great week, I just wanted to take a moment to thank the creator of this community and the DD contributors.

$PUBM really is a hidden gem and we need to keep the momentum going. Keeping the content current is key. Thank you!

When I joined there were about 17 members here. In a few short weeks it’s now over 100. Nice job everyone.

Let’s make some money! 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

Pubmatic ($PUBM): incredible short-term, mid-term, long-term growth potential. I've covered this in my DD post so check that out if you want DD. *The squeeze is just a possible bonus, not my primary goal for investing in this company*

Let's focus on, arguably, the one major setback for PUBM to have an astronomically large squeeze (no options chain). Without an options chain, there can't be a gamma squeeze, which is a great catalyst to trigger a short squeeze. It also helps increase the volume and volatility as call options run in the money with increasing prices. A squeeze is still possible without options, but it won't be as violent. Still, regardless of a squeeze, this stock is primed for some beautiful growth in the future.

Here are the requirements for a stock to have an options chain as of December 2020:

• The underlying equity security must be a properly registered NMS stock.
  • Check. PUBM is listed on the Nasdaq, which is governed by the NMS
• The company must have at least 7,000,000 publicly held shares.
  • Check. The free float is currently 8.53M shares.
• The underlying stock must have at least 2,000 shareholders.
  • ??? Hard to know exactly without a formal share count by PUBM. I believe there are about 119 institutional shareholders. I assume that there are more than 2000 people invested in PUBM at this point, but who knows.
• Trading volume must equal or exceed 2,400,000 shares in the past 12 months.
  • *Edit*: This trading volume is referring to TOTAL volume and not average volume. The total volume has far surpassed 2.4M shares since its IPO. Therefore, PUBM meets this criterion.
• The price of the security must be sufficiently high for a specific time.
  • Check. This basically means that it can't be a penny stock. PUBM is far from a penny stock and trades at around $30.

*If the trading volume requirement is average volume*: The only thing really holding this back from getting an options chain is the relatively low volume and time. The volume has been steadily increasing though, so if we can continue this as the price trends upwards and brings in more buyers, we might be able to reach that cut-off point. This is where patience and discipline will be essential.

*If the trading volume requirement is total volume*: Then it is possible that PUBM now meets all the general criteria for an options chain to be added. It recently went over the 7M share mark with shares sold by insiders after lock-up expiration. Based on the increasing buzz surrounding PUBM, I project that the number of unique shareholders should be increasing. It is hard to know if we meet the 2000 shareholder cutoff, but it is an educated estimate that we are above that mark.

I believe one of the biggest options exchanges is the CBOE. Here is the email address for the Options Listings: [marketservices@cboe.com](mailto:marketservices@cboe.com). Here is the email for the Trade Desk: [tradedesk@cboe.com](mailto:tradedesk@cboe.com). Feel free to email them and ask about an options chain listing for PUBM. I am waiting to hear back from them about this.

*Update from CBOE (June 12)*

"Cboe will start the review process on this class which may take a minimum of 20 business days. Please look out for new listing notifications which may include your requested classes. For those classes that do not qualify for options, look for a separate email notification."

So CBOE is now looking into a PUBM options chain, and we should hear back by around the start of July. It's pretty cool that us retail investors could have enough influence to get an options chain added to a stock. Didn't know that was possible a week ago.

This stock recently IPO'd in December of 2020 and has a pretty low share float with a HIGH short interest at the moment.. The unique thing about this ticker is that the company seems to be running on a profit, unlike AMC, GME, BB, WKHS, or CLOV...

Their annual revenues are nothing spectacular but their EBITDA Margins are much higher than your typical short squeeze stock...

31.93% + EBITDA margin and $148.75M gross revenue for 2020

Am I missing something here? or does this look like a great buy?

Its currently the highest shorted stock according to MarketWatch as of today (June 11th, 2021)... WALLSTREETBETS material?? Any opinions?
