Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:BYND) Stock Surged 20% on Memestocks Craze Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:BYND) stock is experiencing a rally on Tuesday, with investors hoping for a squeeze on the meat-alternative company's shares. With 25,356,827 shares shorted, that's roughly 40.97% of the company's float, NASDAQ:BYND has an outstanding short interest position of over 40% of the total float. This could be a sign that traders have added NASDAQ:BYND to their list of meme stocks to squeeze.
The recent interest in pumping up shorted stocks and the return of Roaring Kitty, who initiated the meme stock rally of 2021, are contributing to the rally. If 2024 can mimic 2021, it will be good news for meme traders as several meme stocks rise as they work to push shorts out of them. Today's movement could be a sign that these traders have added NASDAQ:BYND to their list of meme stocks to squeeze.
NASDAQ:BYND stock is experiencing heavy trading today, with more than 12 million shares being traded, above its daily average trading volume of about 3.7 million shares. NASDAQ:BYND stock is up 20.1% as of Tuesday morning and 17.5% since the start of the year.
Beyond Meat (BYND) has an outstanding short interest position on it of over 40% of the total float, which could be in harm's way if the meme rallies across the market continue. The company reported an 18% drop in sales and its 15th consecutive quarterly loss, both of which were worse than what Wall Street expected.

$BYND, shit product but good trade. Target $17-38While I would never even think of buying Beyond Meat as a product, it does look good as a trade.
Earnings yesterday setup a technical rally and a lot of shorts are getting squeezed out of positions. Technically, you can see that price has broken out of a fallen wedge.
The first target should be $22. Let's see if we can continue higher from there.
I've bought GETTEX:11C and $15C for 3/15 to play this idea.
Beyond Meat's Surprising Turnaround Sparks Investor FrenzyBeyond Meat Inc. (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:BYND ) has left investors reeling as its stock price skyrocketed a staggering 56% in premarket trading on Wednesday. The plant-based meat producer, once beleaguered by declining margins and waning consumer interest, has staged a remarkable comeback fueled by strategic pricing adjustments and aggressive cost-cutting measures.
Short sellers, who had heavily bet against Beyond Meat ( NASDAQ:BYND ) with approximately 37.6% of the company's free float shorted, found themselves on the losing end of a high-stakes gamble. According to data from Ortex, bearish investors have suffered paper losses amounting to $93 million since Tuesday's close, as the stock's meteoric rise triggered a classic short squeeze.
Peter Hillerberg, co-founder of Ortex, commented on the unfolding situation, noting that the surge in buying pressure induced by short sellers scrambling to cover their positions has propelled Beyond Meat's stock to dizzying heights. This unexpected rally underscores the inherent volatility of heavily shorted stocks and serves as a cautionary tale for investors on both sides of the trade.
Beyond Meat's ( NASDAQ:BYND ) resurgence comes at a pivotal moment for the company, which has seen its market value plummet by 60% over the past year amidst concerns over inflated prices and sluggish sales growth. However, the latest earnings report provided a glimmer of hope, with fourth-quarter net revenue beating analysts' expectations despite a modest decline. Buoyed by this positive momentum, Beyond Meat ( NASDAQ:BYND ) unveiled ambitious plans to slash costs and revamp its pricing strategy, aiming to bolster margins and regain market share in an increasingly competitive landscape.
Key to the company's turnaround strategy is a commitment to delivering value to budget-conscious consumers in the United States. By implementing targeted price hikes and streamlining operations to reduce overhead, Beyond Meat ( NASDAQ:BYND ) aims to position itself for sustained growth in the years ahead. Management's bullish outlook, exemplified by the forecasted gross margins in the mid- to high-teens percentage range for 2024, has garnered cautious optimism from industry analysts.
Peter Saleh, an analyst at BTIG, emphasized the significance of Beyond Meat's ( NASDAQ:BYND ) restructuring efforts, likening it to a "kitchen sink" quarter wherein the company addresses fundamental challenges head-on. While acknowledging the uncertainties surrounding the achievability of management's targets, Saleh expressed confidence in Beyond Meat's ability to chart a more sustainable path forward.
Despite the recent surge, Beyond Meat's ( NASDAQ:BYND ) stock remains below its 12-month high, underscoring the lingering challenges facing the company as it navigates a rapidly evolving market landscape. Nevertheless, the fervor surrounding Beyond Meat ( NASDAQ:BYND ) serves as a potent reminder of the power dynamics at play in financial markets, where short squeezes can swiftly reshape investor sentiment and challenge prevailing narratives.
As Beyond Meat ( NASDAQ:BYND ) continues to defy expectations, investors are left to ponder the implications of its remarkable turnaround and the enduring allure of short squeezes in an era of heightened volatility. Whether this resurgence marks a fleeting triumph or a lasting resurgence remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: Beyond Meat's journey is far from over, and the stakes have never been higher.
Beyond Meat Bottom Pattern Formation SpottedHi Guys! This is a Technical Analysis on Beyond Meat (BYND) on the 3 Day Timeframe.
I believe we are in the process of forming an Inverse Head & Shoulders Pattern.
Currently in the process of solidfying the Right Shoulder.
Which i believe will/ can take couple weeks to form before rallying past neckline.
So far every part of this pattern has been textbook.
SUCH THAT ->
Every part of the Head & Shoulders that formed, the VOLUME has reacted a specific way.
Stages of the Price Action
1. Downtrend to form Left Shoulder
2. The rally from Left Shoulder does not breach the Neckline
3. Downtrend from peak of rally to form Head
4. The rally from the Head also does not breach the Neckline
5. Downtrend from Peak of Head rally to form Right Shoulder
6. The rally from the Right Shoulder breaches and moves above the Neckline
7. A Return move from the breakout back to Neckline
8. Test of Support and a bounce from here going above the peak of Right Shoulder Rally
So far we've hit Stages 1-4.
We are currently in the process of forming the Right Shoulder and completing stage 5.
We need to pay attention on the completion of the Right Shoulder and the next stages of the Inverse Head & Shoulder, particularly this next potential RALLY.
It MUST Breach and move above the NECKLINE.
Volume Signs of Textbook Inverse Head & Shoulder
1. Left Shoulder has taller volume bar (higher volume) than Head Volume
2. Lighter volume or shorter bars seen for Head than Left Shoulder
3. The rally from Head has increasing volume that exceeds volume of the rally from left shoulder to neckline
4. Downtrend to Right Shoulder -> shows a declining volume bar height / declining volume
After the formation of the Right shoulder we need to see:
1. Sharp Spike on Volume during rally from Right Shoulder to Neckline breakout
2. Declining Volume during the Return Move
So far so good. And we need to continue to pay attention to make sure all the criteria is being hit.
Now targets for Right Shoulder Rally, is hard to tell.
BUT the previous rallies could not pass the RED RESISTANCE ZONE. So im thinking we can move into it but we dont get ABOVE it.
We need to watch the VOLUME -> there has to be a sharp spike on volume during this rally.

Beyond Meat Chance for more Turmoil ExistsHi Guys! This is a Technical Analysis on Beyond Meat (BYND) on the 3 Day Timeframe.
Ive been following BYND for a long time, trying my best to scope out a BOTTOM. This is an UPDATE to my ongoing analysis. So check out my other charts below for more context.
**Note: Our Current Candle has just begun today 08/14/23 and will close on 08/17/23
We were doing well until we got rejected by the MAJOR RESISTANCE ZONE (Red zone)
Even after we got rejected we did well staying ABOVE the 50 SMA.
But we were not able to sustain SUPPORT and fell through.
We also broke back down below the MAJOR RESISTANCE Trendline from June 2021.
Until proven otherwise, the breakout ABOVE this trendline is now a FAKEOUT.
It is absolutely CRUCIAL we get ABOVE this TRENDLINE this WEEK to continue our Trend change attempt.
And also get back above and confirm SUPPORT on 50 SMA.
The Longer we stay below the chance of further PRICE DECLINE is more PROBABLE.
This can be a Good and Bad thing. Bad especially for those who have bought BYND at higher prices.
But very good in the sense that it would create a sense of no return. This can lead to a necessary capitulatory event where people basically give up, laying the foundation for prices to finally start increasing.
The next levels to watch are the labeled SUPPORT areas:
1. RED Support TrendLine
2. Black Resistance tuned SUPPORT trendline
3. MOST IMPORTANT -> Horizontal Support line labeled MAJOR SUPPORT
4. Last defence = Dashed Red Support Line
-> If we do break & CONFIRM below the RED Dashed line, this would be the Capitulation event where everyone gives up. COuld be a potential scenario to go LONG.
It also would, provided the indicators match/support the pattern, STRENGTHEN the BULLISH DIVERGENCE thats forming. (For more info on the DIVERGENC, look at my previous charts on BYND BELOW)
Now with our Indicators, there are clues in the history that indicate and support further turmoil.
Notice our STOCH RSI
We are currently in a BEARish move down to 20 level.
The last 2 times we reached here, we stayed below the 20 level for 59 days and 56 days.
This caused prices to drop significantly.
We would need to have a quick BULLISH cross and move back upwards or not stay below for extended period of time.
Along with the STOCH RSI, pattern in the RSI when found in correlation with identified pattern in STOCH RSI supports the PRICE DECLINES.
-> The pattern is when the Orange RSI line crosses below the BLACK line and stays below for extended periods can hint at price DECLINES.
Stay level headed, wait till the end of the Week for Clarity. There is always a chance we get back above and continue upwards.

BEYOND MEAT END GAMEDuring the next 2 months, the stock market will undergo a correction due to inflation fears. Beyond is a great company, however, this drive will cause the stock price to drop to the maximum possible retracement, .146 sitting at around ~$73/74. This is confluent to the bottom of the triangle.
The worst-case scenario is that we enter a bear market for some reason greater than inflation fears. If that happens then BYND will go to ~$33/34. Technicals Support this PT because the length of the head and shoulders along with the length of the rising wedge give the same number when we position the est trendline. BYND balance sheet isn't the best since they are consistently losing money.
The best-case scenario is we bounce from my target and retest the top of the triangle.
When the day comes where we break that triangle, I can see $1000 in a couple of years and $4000 by 2050.
Beyond Meat has Retraced, Long From HereGood opportunity to long this from current price. It has retraced to 0.618 Fibonacci and filled the gap after spiking a couple of weeks ago. This is a market that is only going to grow and Beyond Meat are probably the biggest name in it. target is at least the all time high at 239.71.
BYND'S Potential long term upsides: Forcasat for the next month.Beyond Meat was already coming down when some dude ate a bat. The amount further it dropped, is not by very much in comparison to where it was already. It seems like BYND could be positively effected by the new normal. More young investors trying to save the world. Any who last time we got here from the bottom- we blasted through $100 and did not look back. I expect the same.
Don't eat MEAT- EAT BABIES!!
