we well know that, a coherent state keeps to be a coherent state in its evolution

does similar conclusion hold for a squeezed state?

the answer is YES!

i have make out of it
 
Doesn't a coherent state stays coherent under the evolution of a Hamiltonian that is at most quadratic in Position and momentum. If I am thinking correctly, if a non-quadratic appears in the Hamiltonian the coherent form of the state is no longer valid under time evolution.

I am pretty sure the same thing is true for squeezed states as well.

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
