A type of short squeeze in which the original lenders of the stock buy a large amount of it. The increased demand for liquidity in the market translates into increases in the stock price available for lending. At the same time, the stock lenders recall the stock from the short sellers. If the short sellers can’t find alternative lenders, they will be forced to purchase the stock on the open market. As a result, the stock price rises even higher, and the original lenders then dispose of their stocks and net a profit.
