Short sellers moved aggressively this week across several names. Chewy leads the pack with SI hitting 72.4% of free float — up 3.3 points in just seven days. Bears show no sign of backing off the pet retailer.
CoreWeave, the AI cloud darling, is now at 31.5% SI — up 2.8 points over the week. Despite its $38.7B market cap, shorts keep adding pressure. Availability sits at 221%, so borrowing remains accessible.
The biggest mover by percentage-point jump is ChronoScale Holdings. SI leaped +6.5 points to 38.2% in a week. Cost to borrow is running at 31%, signalling serious squeeze risk. Availability is just 13% — stock is hard to borrow.
Honeywell is a surprise name. The $73B industrial giant saw SI jump +2.7 points to 6.5% week-on-week. That's notable for a mega-cap. The industrial conglomerate has been in restructuring mode, which may be drawing bears.
Skyworks Solutions is another chip name under pressure. SI rose to 19.9%, up 2.1 points. The semiconductor sector faces headwinds with the ongoing AI chip rotation.
GameStop remains a social media favourite. SI holds at 13.9% with borrowing costs at 0.58%. Availability is tightening at 76% — worth watching for retail-driven squeezes.
