AI Summary
Summary
The author, u/Striking-Cattle3255, is reiterating their bullish thesis on Hims & Hers Health, Inc. (HIMS) after a successful "YOLO" investment made two weeks prior.
The core thesis is built on two pillars: strong fundamentals (low P/E, high growth) and a high short interest (40-46% of float), which could trigger a short squeeze.
This is a speculative post driven by personal conviction and a potential short squeeze scenario, rather than in-depth, well-researched due diligence.

This will be likely my last post about this stock just want to share here my view of the stock in next couple of weeks (apologies that I canβt answer all the DMβs, but I think this post will answer most of the questions)
As you know I YOLOed my life savings into HIMS before earnings (linking the post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/s/HTwEdAtgJY )
As of today I am up over \~$50k+ and keep in mind this is with shares, also I closed half of my position earlier and regret that too much but fundamentally my thesis is still the same.
Sharing my DD below for your reference:
1. If you look at the P/E on this stock itβs extremely low and very solid growth rate and P/E. This fundamentals should boost the stock over time alone to \~$40 (which I am sure will happen before end of the year anyways)
2. I know most of you look for quick gains and this stock has super high probability for a solid pump. Letβs look at the number: 40-46% of the float is sold short (\~$85M shares) most of them shorted before the deal with Novo and are already deeply underwater and try to cover / roll over. I expected that most of those shorts close their position a With average volume, it would take \~2β3 days for shorts to cover.
Summary: Once the shares are at $30 / share I would be careful and not open a too big position. My personal exit point is around $40 per share.
The stock has a low P/E ratio relative to its growth rate, and a very high short interest, with 40-46% of the float sold short. The combination of solid fundamentals attracting long-term investors and high short interest creates conditions for a potential short squeeze, forcing short-sellers to buy back shares and driving the price up rapidly. The author believes these factors will propel the stock towards their price target of $40, with a potential for a significant "pump" in the short term as shorts are forced to cover their positions. The short squeeze may not materialize; short sellers could be correct about a fundamental flaw in the business, or market sentiment could turn against growth stocks, invalidating the thesis.
