Short sellers have been busy this week. CHRN (ChronoScale Holdings) tops the movers list with SI % of FF jumping 12 points to 45.8% in just seven days. Borrow costs sit at 61.9% APR and availability has collapsed to just 7.6% — a tight setup.
CRWV (CoreWeave) is drawing fresh attention. SI rose nearly 5 points to 33.1% of float. The $40B AI infrastructure play has become a crowded short despite its high-profile backers.
WOLF (Wolfspeed) remains extraordinary — short interest now exceeds 103% of free float with zero availability. Bears face no easy exit.
CHWY shorts also edged up to 74.8% of float. Availability is high at 537%, so opening new positions remains easy for now.
On the covering side, HNGE (Hinge Health) saw shorts ease 4 points to 14%. CRWD (CrowdStrike) saw a sharper retreat — SI fell nearly 2 points to under 1%, reflecting strong sentiment in cybersecurity.
GME drifts sideways at 13.6% short. Borrow costs stay low at 0.5%. Availability sits at 94% of SI — no squeeze pressure evident. MRNA bears haven't covered despite a recent rally, holding at 16.4% of float.
