Short sellers made bold moves this week. Wolfspeed saw the sharpest jump — its SI % of Free Float leapt 21 points in seven days to 74.4%. The chip maker has zero availability of shares to borrow. Bears are fully committed.
Carvana is another standout. SI shot up 8.3 points to 10.4% of FF. That's notable given the stock's $52bn market cap. With availability at 312%, shorts can still pile in easily.
Lyft climbed the list too. SI hit 29.2% of FF, up nearly 5 points over the week. The rideshare firm continues to attract bearish pressure with days-to-cover at 9.4.
On the overall most-shorted leaderboard, STAAR Surgical leads large names with 94.9% SI of FF. SoundHound AI holds 40.1% with a cost-to-borrow of 24.5% — expensive to stay short but bears aren't blinking.
Rumble carries a and . The social video platform is a popular short on Wall Street, with only 1.6% availability remaining.
Lucid Group rounds out the week's big movers, adding 7.4 points to reach 34.6% SI of FF — a signal that EV scepticism remains firmly intact.
