Short sellers are pressing hard on WOLF. Short interest hit 132% of free float on June 29. That's up from 105% just one week ago. The chipmaker's zero share availability confirms no new borrow exists.
HTZ is another name drawing heavy attention. Short interest jumped from 44.6% to 62.6% of free float in seven days. Bears appear unconvinced by any Hertz recovery story.
AI infrastructure play CRWV also drew fresh shorts. SI climbed from 22% to 29% this week. Yet availability sits at 334% of SI, meaning plenty of borrow still exists.
On the covering side, CAR saw shorts retreat. Avis Budget short interest fell from 46.5% to 39.2% over the week. BIRK saw similar relief, dropping from 28% to 22%.
Bitcoin proxy MSTR remains in focus as social chatter rises. TD Cowen targets Bitcoin at $100,000 by year-end. SI stands at 12% of free float with 214% availability — bears are not crowded here.
WaterBridge Infrastructure WBI posted the biggest single-week SI jump overall, surging from 52% to 87%. That move warrants watching closely into the week ahead.
