After reaching its quarterly production milestone earlier than expected, Enovix Corporation (NASDAQ: ENVX) ran 10%. Additionally, ENVX took another step toward mass-producing its batteries as it chose a site and hired a leadership team in Malaysia for its Fab-2 line.

With a high short interest, ENVX stock could be a short squeeze candidate to watch closely this week.
ENVX Fundamentals
Exceeding Production Targets
Earlier this month, ENVX announced that it had reached its Q2 production target of 18,000 units with two weeks remaining in the quarter, which sent ENVX stock up more than 10%. This is the second time ENVX will exceed its forecast since it also exceeded its Q1 forecast by almost 40%.
Furthermore, ENVX has chosen a Malaysian site for its Fab-2 ahead of schedule and has hired the leadership team as well as a team of 25 engineers, indicating that it may begin production earlier than the expected date in 2024, which will see ENVX exponentially increase its 2024 production.
Malicious Short Report?
On another note, a small Twitter account recently published a short report regarding ENVX stock on a newly made website. Some ENVX investors believe that this may be a malicious report from short sellers since ENVX is currently highly shorted, with 23% short interest and almost 32% of the float on loan, with the utilization rate remaining high at 100%.
The short report may make investors rally behind the stock, which would add buying pressure on the short sellers and make the stock run.
