Short sellers are moving fast. Wolfspeed leads all US stocks with SI at 130% of free float — up 15.8 percentage points in just one week. Zero shares are available to borrow. The SiC chipmaker's debt woes continue to attract aggressive bearish bets.
Grindr saw one of the sharpest jumps. SI shot from 2.2% to 12.2% of free float — a near fivefold rise in seven days. Short sellers appear to have freshly targeted the social app stock.
Chewy is another mover worth watching. SI climbed to 59.3% of free float, up 7.9 points week-on-week. Bears are circling the pet retailer ahead of its next earnings print.
AI healthcare name Tempus AI also attracted fresh shorts. SI rose from 23.4% to 30.5%. Sentiment is split — bulls like the AI angle, but shorts see stretched valuations.
On the squeeze side, GameStop shorts backed off. SI fell from 14.4% to 13.0%. Shake Shack shed nearly 5 points of SI in a week.
Ondas is flashing a rare signal. Borrow utilization hit 93% — near its 52-week high — with availability at zero. Any price spike could force rapid covering.
