Bears Pile In: Wolfspeed Tops 100% Short Interest

Wolfspeed has crossed a rare threshold. Short interest now sits at 103% of free float — up 26 points in 30 days. The silicon carbide chipmaker has zero shares available to borrow. Bears are fully committed.

CoreWeave is the other big mover. Short interest jumped from 19% to 33% of free float in a month. The AI cloud stock has attracted $40bn in market cap but also serious skepticism. Bears have added nearly 14 percentage points in 30 days.

Chewy remains one of the most shorted mid-caps in the US. SI sits at nearly 75% of free float. Despite heavy short positioning, availability is extremely high at 537% — suggesting no squeeze pressure yet.

ChronoScale Holdings saw the biggest 7-day jump: up 11.5 points to 43%. The small-cap name is attracting fresh short attention fast.

On the other side, IonQ shorts are retreating. SI dropped from 15% to 12.5% over the past month. Quantum computing enthusiasm is chipping away at bear positions.

GameStop and Strategy both saw modest short covering. Neither is attracting new bears right now.

This is not financial advice.
