Short sellers are loading up on WOLF and WBI at a striking pace. WOLF's short interest hit 129.86% of free float as of June 25 — and rose 26.8 percentage points in just one week. WBI surged even harder, jumping 53.8 points in seven days to reach 85.49%.
LCID sits at 39.22% short interest. Bears added another 7 points last week. EV scepticism around Lucid shows no sign of fading.
CACC (Credit Acceptance Corp) caught fresh attention. SI jumped nearly 9 points to 22.5% of free float. QSR (Restaurant Brands, owner of Burger King and Tim Hortons) also saw a sharp 8-point rise to 14.8%.
On the other side, CAR (Avis Budget) saw shorts retreat. SI fell nearly 8 points to 40.18%. MNRO (Monro) dropped 8 points to 22.74%.
AAPL stays lightly shorted at under 1% of free float despite political noise. AOC called for a breakup of Apple this week. Short sellers aren't buying the narrative — yet.
NVDA and META also remain near the bottom of the short interest table, under 1.4% each. AI bulls still dominate those trades.
