The recent sharp stock market moves have created significant short-squeeze opportunities, especially for Nasdaq stocks.

A short squeeze takes place when a stock's short-sellers scramble to cover their bearish positions when that stock moves sharply upward; their buying ends up pushing shares even higher. Short positions of stocks are measured by the short-squeeze ratio, which represents the number of days it would take for the short-sellers to cover their positions based on the recent daily volume of the stock.

With this in mind, Stockpickr has compiled a list of the Top Nasdaq Short-Squeeze Plays for November, including First Busey(BUSE Quote) and Mobile Mini(MINI Quote).
