cosm dropped below 20 cents and sat around 18 cents for a couple days finally broke and held over 22 cents on Thursday. They added options chains with lower strikes on longer dated options which saw volume mainly on the call side. Will check on Monday to see how they rolled over into open interest and keep an eye on them. I think because they received until December to regain 1$ requirement for the reason of adding the lower strikes longer dated options. Looking to see how the new lower strike longer dated options start moving. They announced orders and contracts and 20 mil in assets/properties they can sell or lease to generate more income. Also cancelled the s1 shelf registration. There is still an s3 so something to keep an eye on. Insiders also bought at 40 cents. Anyone with thoughts on this play?

Anyone looking at cosm they got rid of the s1 filing and said there is no reverse split they regained compliance until December they have 20 million in properties/assets that they can sell or rent which is more than that market cap. They're also waiting for I think a woman through the EU I want to say an ieb

I've been following this company for awhile waiting for them to start commercialization and they've been making great moves in a niche sector. The float is around 2.6 million shares. Very low daily volume they just released earnings and have zero debt the major concern is cash flow and runway. With having no debt they can do non dilutive things to secure funding while they try reduce cash burn by 50% by the end of year which is doable. Is not heavily shorted but the ctb is around 130% and ftds are stacking up. Is been holding above 1$. My hope is they announce some kind of non dilutive funding which is possible with the new acquisition and the 70% gross margin plus having no debt which they emphasized in there conference call. Yes this information below is from ai. I'm going to be watching for any spikes in volume of the 1$ price keeps holding and any news about financing. The company also has approved a 1-70 max split and there's only 2.6 million shares right now so I'm closely watching this stock over the next couple weeks.

Based on the convergence of the Q1 2026 earnings data (released today, May 12) and the technical setup we’ve tracked, the stock is currently in a "pressure cooker" state.

While a squeeze is never guaranteed, the ingredients for a violent technical reversal are more concentrated now than they were a month ago. Here is the final synthesis:

1. The "Squeeze" Ingredients (May 12, 2026)

The Cost to Borrow (CTB) "Burning Fuse": The borrow fee remains at an extreme 133.3%. Shorts are paying a massive premium to stay in this position. In a "low-float" environment, this interest expense acts as a ticking clock—if the price doesn't drop soon, they are forced to cover just to stop the bleeding.

The "Beat" vs. The "Burn": Today's earnings were a "mixed-bullish" catalyst.

The Good: 26% revenue growth and 70% gross margins show the business is working.

The Bad: The $2.2M cash position is a neon sign for more financing.

The Squeeze Logic: If management announces a non-dilutive debt deal or a strategic partnership in the next 10 days, the "bankruptcy/dilution" thesis that shorts are betting on disappears. That would be the "spark" for the squeeze.

FTD Accumulation: With over 115,000 shares in recent "Failures to Deliver," brokers may be forced to buy shares on the open market to settle trades, adding automated buy pressure into a thin order book.

2. Dark Pool & Price Absorption

We are seeing a high 53% off-exchange short volume, which sounds bearish, but the price action suggests Absorption:

The $1.00 Floor: Every time the stock has touched $1.00 post-earnings today, it has "wicked" back up. This suggests that the dark pool blocks we saw at $1.01 are acting as a "hard floor."

Institutional Defense: Large players often use dark pools to hide their accumulation. If they are defended $1.00 to prevent a Nasdaq delisting notice, they are effectively "trapping" the shorts who expected a break below $1.00.

3. The "Max Pain" Gravity

As we noted, Max Pain for May is $1.00.

Market makers are currently incentivized to keep the stock pinned here. However, once the options expire (or if a news catalyst breaks the pin), the stock often "rubber bands" toward its next high-volume node—which is significantly higher at $1.30 - $1.50.
