Short sellers are moving fast this week. HTZ — Hertz Global Holdings — saw its SI % of FF jump nearly 11 percentage points in seven days to 59.2%. Zero shares are available to borrow. The stock is under intense pressure.
CRWV — CoreWeave — is another mover. Shorts added 4.8 points in a week. SI now sits at 28.4% of free float. Despite a $36B market cap, availability is ample at 301%. Bears are betting against the AI infrastructure darling.
WOLF — Wolfspeed — remains the most shorted large-cap US name. SI exceeds 111% of free float. Cost to borrow is 9.3%. No shares available. That's a powder keg.
SOUN — SoundHound AI — holds 40.6% SI with a 12.6% cost to borrow and zero availability. Social buzz around AI names keeps this one in focus.
On the short-covering side, QSR saw the biggest drop — shorts cut 5.9 points in a week to 8.9% of FF. HLF is also seeing rebuilding bears, per ORTEX news, with insiders heading for the exit at the same time.
