Short sellers added heavily to RDDT positions last week. Reddit's short interest jumped 4.1 percentage points to 17.6% of free float. The move comes as the $22bn social media platform faces scrutiny over AI monetisation.
WOLF remains one of the most-shorted US stocks. Wolfspeed's SI sits at 80.7% of free float. Zero shares are available to borrow. The semiconductor firm has lost 63% in three months.
EVCM tops the short score rankings with a 38.9% cost to borrow. That's the highest CTB among liquid US names. Availability is near zero at just 0.7% of short interest.
OPEN saw its SI rise 2.8 points to 20.5% in seven days. Opendoor bears are doubling down as the real estate tech firm struggles with rate headwinds.
CHWY carries 59% SI but tells a different story. Availability is 597% of short interest — meaning plenty of borrow exists. A squeeze looks unlikely here.
SOUN at 40% SI with zero borrow available is the name short squeeze watchers should track. SoundHound AI trades at a $3.2bn market cap with CTB above 8%.
ACAD is a fresh name to watch. Its cost to borrow spiked 129% in one week after analyst upgrades lifted the stock.
