Portage Biotech: Rocketing Stock Amidst Financial Turbulence

Summary: Portage Biotech shows explosive recent performance with significant price surges, but financial metrics reveal deep concerns such as a high short float and drastic negative ROI and ROE. The company's market cap is minimal, and insider ownership is very high, which could influence stock volatility. With extreme short interest and a recent spike in performance, potential for a short squeeze exists but is risky due to weak fundamentals.
