Short interest in RDDT jumped 4.1 percentage points in one week. The stock now sits at 17.6% of free float short. Bears are clearly betting against the social platform — even as it dominates its own headlines.
QUBT is flashing a rare setup. Short interest hit 31.8% of free float. Availability of shares to borrow just dropped to zero. That's a classic squeeze pressure cooker. Shorts have nowhere to run if buyers push back.
WOLF (Wolfspeed) tells a different story. A brutal 83.4% of its float is now short — down 63% in price over three months. Zero borrow availability here too. The semiconductor firm is in deep distress, and bears show no sign of backing off.
Elsewhere, FLWS (1-800-Flowers) carries a staggering 29-day cost to cover. (Lucky Strike Entertainment) leads on short score at 94.6. (EverCommerce) has a cost to borrow spiking near 39% APR.
On the mega-cap side, shorts remain minimal. TSLA sits at just 2.4% short. NVDA at 1.3%. The real short action is firmly in small and mid-cap names.
