Short interest in CRWV jumped 4.8 percentage points this week. It now sits at 33.1% of free float. Bears are betting the AI infrastructure darling's $40B valuation won't hold.
CHWY remains one of the most shorted US mid-caps. SI hit 74.8% of free float, up 4.4 points in seven days. Short sellers appear unconvinced by any turnaround story despite the stock's retail fan base.
The biggest mover is WOLF (Wolfspeed). SI crossed 103% of free float — up 4.5 points on the week. Cost to borrow stands at 9.1% APR. Availability is now 0%, meaning new shorts cannot easily open positions. A squeeze setup is forming.
ChronoScale Holdings saw the sharpest weekly jump — up 11.5 points to 43.3% SI. A lesser-known name, but bears moved fast.
On the other side, CRWD (CrowdStrike) saw shorts retreat sharply. SI fell nearly 2 points to just 0.9% of free float. Bulls are clearly winning that name.
TSLA sits at just 2.9% SI, despite headlines around SpaceX's IPO boosting Elon Musk's wealth. Short sellers have largely abandoned the trade.
GME holds at 13.6% SI with availability at 94%. No squeeze catalyst visible today.
