Short sellers are making bold moves this week. HUBC (HUB Cyber Security) stands out as the most extreme case. Its SI % of FF exploded from 8% to over 2,081% in just seven days. Cost to borrow hit 105.7% APR. Available shares to borrow: zero.

OKLO and LUNR are also under pressure. Oklo sits at 21% SI of FF with shorts still dug in post-earnings. Intuitive Machines carries 24.4% — and ORTEX data flags that its founder is selling into the weakness.

GRPN (Groupon) is deeply shorted at 66.8% of free float, with availability a razor-thin 1.5%. Bears aren't blinking despite the stock's drop.

Meanwhile, BBCP (Concrete Pumping) surged 33% and caught shorts flat-footed. Availability is massive at over 2,400% of SI — room to pile back in.

GME remains in focus after its earnings call. Short interest holds steady at 13.3% of FF. No meaningful cover yet — shorts appear unconvinced.

FT headlines flag hedge funds betting against call-centre stocks on AI disruption risk. That theme is gaining traction with short sellers broadly. The Nasdaq chip sell-off adds to pressure on AI-adjacent names.
