Bears Pile Into Avis, Grindr, and AI Plays

Short sellers moved fast this week. The biggest jump came from SHAZ — SharonAI Holdings — where SI % of FF leapt from 12% to 33% in just seven days. That's a 21-point swing. Availability sits at just 4.9%, a sign borrowing pressure is extreme.

CAR — Avis Budget Group — now has 47.5% of its free float sold short. That's up from 40.4% a week ago. Bears are clearly betting the car-rental sector faces more pain.

GRND — Grindr — saw short interest climb from 16.7% to 22.5%. The $2.4bn market cap dating app is drawing growing bearish attention.

AI chipmaker CBRS — Cerebras Systems — holds 31.6% SI % FF. Notably, availability is at 0%, meaning no shares left to borrow. Any catalyst could spark a violent squeeze.

On the other side, GME — GameStop — dipped slightly from 13% to 12.5%. Reddit's favourite meme stock is losing bears.

Mega-caps remain lightly shorted. TSLA sits at just 2.8%. NVDA is at 1.25%. Shorts show little appetite for the big tech names right now.
