Short sellers turned aggressive this week. The biggest movers tell the real story.
CAPR saw the sharpest jump. Capricor Therapeutics' SI hit 45.6% of free float — up from 36.4% just seven days ago. That's a 9.2 percentage point surge. Availability sits at just 31.9%, meaning shares to borrow are scarce.
KVYO is another name bears loaded up on. Klaviyo's SI climbed to 19.9% of FF, up nearly 7 points in a week. Options activity on the marketing software stock has been heavy heading into earnings season.
Chip carnage continues at WOLF. Wolfspeed's SI now stands at a punishing 73.7% of FF. Availability is effectively zero. The semiconductor firm has shed 56% over three months. Short sellers show no sign of retreating.
SPCX — SpaceX's public listing vehicle — saw SI rise to 23.9%, up 5.9 points on the week. With a $1.9 trillion market cap, any squeeze here would be seismic.
On social platforms, GME is buzzing again. Its SI is with calls flooding in before its earnings report. and also dominate options flow ahead of a big tech earnings week.
