Short sellers made bold moves this week. WaterBridge Infrastructure saw the biggest jump. Its SI % of FF leapt from 30% to 83% in just seven days — a 53-point surge that stands out across all US mid-caps.

Wolfspeed remains in extreme territory. Short interest now sits at 113% of free float. Availability has fallen to zero, meaning borrowing shares is nearly impossible. Bears are deeply committed to this chip name.

Cerebras Systems also drew fresh short sellers. SI climbed to 38% of free float. Like Wolfspeed, availability is at zero. Both stocks face significant squeeze risk if sentiment turns.

Credit Acceptance Corporation saw a 6.7-point rise in short interest, now at 21% of FF. Auto-lending bears are building positions.

On the social buzz side, Micron Technology dominated headlines. The chip maker crushed earnings expectations — analysts called it "annihilating" estimates. MU short interest is just 3.4% and barely moved. Shorts there were caught offside.

Nike and Snap both feature in market chatter but show no alarming SI shifts. Nike is at 4.1% FF, up fractionally. Snap ticked slightly lower to 9.4%.

The standout theme this week: zero-availability stocks like Wolfspeed and Cerebras are where the real pressure builds.
