Short sellers made aggressive moves this week. WOLF stands out as the most dramatic. Its SI % of FF surged 25 points in seven days. It now sits at 113.8% of free float — the highest reading among mid-cap US stocks. Availability has hit zero, meaning no shares are left to borrow. That is a classic short squeeze setup.
WIX also drew fresh bearish interest. Short interest climbed to 29.1% of FF, up nearly 3 points in a week. The website-builder stock has 19 analysts covering it, yet bears are loading up.
Quantum computing name QUBT holds 31.6% SI % FF, up 2 points on the week. Availability is nearly zero at just 2%. With short squeeze conditions building, any positive news could spark a sharp move higher.
LUCK carries the longest days-to-cover in its peer group at 39 days. Bears would need over a month to exit positions. Short score sits at 94.7 out of 100.
RDDT made news today after coming under pressure. Short interest stands at 11.8% of FF. Availability is extremely high at 845%. Shorts have plenty of room to add.
LFVN tops the short score table at 99.6. Days to cover is nearly 20, and cost to borrow is 74%. That is an expensive bet to hold.
