HTZ is day two into a short squeeze. Bears are getting burned. Short interest sits at 65.4% of free float — but zero shares are available to borrow. Squeezed shorts have nowhere to hide.
SOUN tells a similar story. SoundHound AI carries 43.1% SI % FF. The borrow market is completely sealed, with 0% availability. Yet the stock keeps climbing, trapping bears on the wrong side.
SpaceX — trading on private markets as SPCX — saw the sharpest institutional short build this week. SI % FF jumped 3.6 percentage points in seven days, rising to 36.4%.
RNG is also drawing fresh bearish attention. RingCentral's SI % FF climbed nearly 3 points to 15.1% in a week. Shorts appear unconvinced by any recovery narrative.
FSLR shows an unusual split. Bears added shorts into a bull stampede — SI nudged up to 10.4%. The stock's strong run hasn't discouraged sellers.
GME options alarms are flashing too. GameStop's SI edged up to 14.5% FF. With float ticking and options activity elevated, the meme crowd may be circling again.
GALT remains the most extreme name on the board. Galectin Therapeutics carries 303% SI % FF with just 20.9% availability — a tightly coiled spring. This is not financial advice.
