Short sellers turned aggressive this week on a handful of names. KVYO saw the biggest move among mid-caps. Klaviyo's SI % of FF surged to 19.9%, up from 13.0% just seven days ago — a near-7 percentage point jump. The marketing automation firm faces earnings scrutiny and featured in high-impact ORTEX news about next week's big print season.
SPCX is another standout. SpaceX shorts climbed to 23.9% of free float, rising nearly 6 points in a week. Despite its $1.1 trillion valuation, bears are building positions fast.
WOLF remains the most extreme story. Wolfspeed's SI sits at a punishing 73.7% of FF with zero shares available to borrow. The semiconductor firm fell 56% over three months. Getting short is almost impossible now — a potential squeeze trigger.
EVCM carries the highest short score on the platform at 94.5. Its cost to borrow hit 38.2% APR — the most expensive on the list. Only 1.5% of shares are available to borrow.
SNOW offers a contrarian angle. ORTEX noted shorts are actively retreating ahead of Snowflake's upcoming earnings. SI sits at just 5.3% of FF, with massive availability at 2,256% of SI. Bears are unwinding, not piling in.
CAPR posted the sharpest raw SI increase — up 9.2 points in one week to 45.6%. Watch this biotech closely.
