Chewy is the week's sharpest mover in short interest. Its SI % of free float jumped to 91.3%, up from 66.0% a week ago, a rise of 25 percentage points. That is one of the largest single-week increases across any stock with a market cap above $500M.
Skydance Corporation also moved fast. Short interest climbed to 65% of free float from 49.7%, a 15-point swing in seven days. SailPoint rose 6 points to 33.5%. Fluence Energy hit 38% from 32.4%.
Attention is also shifting to Tesla and General Motors, both due to report earnings next week. TSLA's SI % of FF sits at 2.5%, up from 2.4% a week ago. GM's is flat near 2.4%. Neither is heavily shorted. But ORTEX Alt Data shows German car registration data, which leads TSLA revenue by 43 days with a strong fit, running +269% on the same quarter last year. The same dataset leads GM revenue by 15 days and is up +133%. Those readings are pointing in a positive direction going into the prints.
Fabrinet is another name to watch. ORTEX Index Rebalance Radar shows its deletion odds from the MSCI World jumped from 8% to 49% overnight. It sits 9.3% below the exit line. Forced selling could reach $550M if it is cut from the index.
On the high-short-score list, EverCommerce carries a score of 96 with 14.4% SI % of FF and a cost to borrow of 92.9%. Lucky Strike Entertainment sits at a score of 95, with 17.6% SI % of FF and 35 days to cover.
