English term or phrase: Short squeezes still occur but extremely rarely
Certainly there is no occasion to lose sleep over it. Stocks do not go up without limit all of a sudden. It is just as easy to set a stop on the loss you are willing to take on a short-side transaction as it is on a long purchase. Such situations as the famous 1901 corner in Northern Pacific are not likely ever to occur again under present regulations. EN: The famous "short squeeze." Short squeezes still occur but extremely rarely in big liquid issues.

short squeezes
Explanation:
A expressão **short squeeze** não deve ser traduzida. É uma expressão muito comum em terminologia de bolsa e significa forçar os detentores de posições curtas a fecharem a posição. De notar que este fecho pode ser forçado (buy-in) pela entidade corretora.
Existe uma tradução na terminologia europeia (aperto da posição da curta), mas não me parece ser muito feliz.
