WOLF is the week's standout short target. Short interest hit 113.8% of free float — up 25 percentage points in just seven days. That's one of the sharpest single-week spikes in the market. The semiconductor firm has already surged 209% over three months. Bears are betting hard the rally can't hold.
LUCK (Lucky Strike Entertainment) carries the highest ORTEX short score among mid-caps at 94.7. Days-to-cover sits at 39 — an extreme squeeze risk if sentiment shifts.
SOUN (SoundHound AI) has 38.7% SI % of FF with a cost-to-borrow of 24.7%. Short sellers are paying dearly to hold that position. Any positive AI news could trigger a sharp squeeze.
NVDA remains lightly shorted at just 1.2% of FF. The Q1 2027 earnings transcript just dropped — and the market is clearly still bullish on the name.
GME shorts crept up slightly, to 17.4% of FF. Nothing dramatic yet, but the meme crowd is always watching.
TSLA short interest barely moved at 2.7% of FF. Bears have retreated significantly from prior highs.
