Short sellers are active heading into September. Tenable Holdings saw the sharpest SI jump of the week. Its short interest hit 13.8% of free float, up from 9.1% a week ago — a gain of nearly 5 points in seven days.
MiniMed Group is another mover. SI climbed to 28.4% of FF, up 5.3 points over the same period. Cybersecurity and healthcare are drawing bearish attention fast.
The perennial bear target Wolfspeed remains deeply shorted at 73.3% of FF. Its stock is down 57% over three months. Shares available to borrow have dried up completely, making new short positions difficult and expensive to establish.
Chewy holds elevated short interest at nearly 49% of FF. However, availability sits at a comfortable 600%, meaning short sellers can still add pressure without squeezing.
EverCommerce tops the short score table at 94.5, with cost to borrow spiking to 38% APR. Only 1.5% of short interest is covered by available shares — a squeeze-ready setup.
UiPath is trending in the news ahead of earnings. Its SI stands at 29.7% of FF, flat on the week. A strong beat could force a cover rally.
GameStop crept up to 15.1% of FF from 14.5%. Retail attention remains high but conditions for a repeat short squeeze look limited for now.
