Short sellers made bold moves this week. Wix.com saw the biggest SI jump among large caps. Short interest climbed to 20.6% of free float — up from 11.6% just seven days ago. That's a 9-point spike in a week.

Wolfspeed remains a prime bear target. SI hit 77.2% of FF, up another 4.3 points week-on-week. Zero shares are available to borrow. Shorts are locked in with nowhere new to add.

EverCommerce tops the ORTEX short score table at 94.3. Its cost to borrow stands at 38%. Only 7.8% of short interest is covered by available shares. That's an extremely tight borrow situation.

GameStop tells the opposite story. SI collapsed from 15.1% to just 3.8% in one week — an 11-point drop. Shorts are covering fast. Availability jumped to 180%. The squeeze pressure has faded for now.

Chewy also climbed, with SI rising to 52.6% of FF from 48.9%. Bears keep piling in despite the pet retailer's recent price stability.

Oil hitting $100 per barrel dominates macro headlines today. Energy shorts may face fresh pressure as commodity momentum builds.
