Wolfspeed is the week's standout short interest mover. Its SI % of free float jumped nearly 29 points in seven days — from 60% to 89%. Zero shares are available to borrow. Bears are betting hard on its demise.
Electric vehicle names are also drawing fire. Lucid Group saw short interest climb 7 points to 34.7% of float. Carvana posted an eye-catching 8-point rise to 10.1% — remarkable given its $48bn market cap.
Chewy sits near 48% SI of free float, up 7 points on the week. Availability is sky-high at 859%, meaning plenty of fresh ammunition for new short sellers.
On the high-score short radar, SoundHound AI carries a short score of 86 and 39% SI of float with a cost to borrow of 25%. Rumble scores 89, with borrow costs near 24%.
Lucky Strike Entertainment tops the short score board at 94. It takes over 32 days to cover. That is a classic squeeze setup if sentiment shifts.
Bears are clearly active across EVs, semis, and consumer names. Watch for squeezes where availability is thinning fast.
