Short sellers piled into ONCO last week. The oncology biotech's SI % of Free Float exploded from 14% to 214% — a 200-point jump in seven days. That is the sharpest weekly move in the US market.
SOUN remains a major battleground. SoundHound AI sits at 38% SI % FF with a cost to borrow of 51%. Zero shares are available to borrow. That squeeze pressure is building with no easy exit for bears.
RUM is even more extreme. Rumble carries a 26% SI % FF — but borrow costs have hit 109% APR. Availability is near zero at just 0.06% of short interest. Short sellers are paying dearly to hold that bet.
GME grabbed headlines with a bold proposal to acquire EBAY for $55.5 billion. GameStop's SI % FF stands at 13.7%. The stock is no longer the extreme short target it once was — but the eBay news will likely stir fresh positioning.
Among mid-caps, WOLF (Wolfspeed) saw SI % FF climb to 50%, up 4 points in a week. (Vital Farms) rose to 37%. (Vail Resorts) jumped 6 points to 22%.
PCT (PureCycle Technologies) sits at 36% SI % FF with a short score of 88. Bears show no sign of retreating there.
