Analyst desks were silent this week. The ORTEX pulse feed logged over 2,100 signals across hundreds of tickers for the week of May 11, 2026. None were confirmed analyst rating changes, upgrades, downgrades, or initiations.
The activity captured was entirely short interest, cost-to-borrow, options, and utilization data — not analyst commentary.
No analyst rating changes were recorded this week. The data source returned no upgrades, downgrades, or initiations for the period.
While formal analyst activity was absent, the pulse data points to broad market surveillance across a wide range of names. The tickers logged span every major sector — from mega-caps like AAPL, NVDA, MSFT, GOOGL, and META, to small-cap biotech, crypto-linked equities, and international ADRs.
The pulse types recorded — short interest, cost-to-borrow, utilization, and options — suggest traders were actively monitoring borrow conditions and options positioning across the board. That pattern often precedes directional moves, even when the sell side stays quiet.
No sector showed a concentrated cluster of analyst-driven activity this week. When analyst desks return, the names already under short-side and options scrutiny will be the ones to watch.
