Today, investors in MediaCo (NASDAQ:MDIA) and MDIA stock certainly have reason to jump up and down. This radio station play has seen its share price jump more than 300% at the time of writing. Indeed, any move of this size is worth diving into.
MediaCo is one of those little-known, small-cap plays that has seen a lot of attention of late. In fact, after today’s massive rally, the company’s market capitalization is only just breaking through the $130 million level. Accordingly, investors may wonder what’s going on with this stock right now.
Indeed, MediaCo is a company that’s soaring on relatively little news. However, looking at the company’s short volume ratio of around 23%, it appears some degree of short squeeze mania has hit retail investors with this play.
Let’s dive into a few things investors may be interested to know about MediaCo.
