Short sellers made notable moves this week. NNE (NANO Nuclear Energy) saw its SI % of free float jump 3.7 points to 27.7% in just seven days. Bears are circling the small nuclear energy play hard. Availability stands at just 9.5% of SI — shares to borrow are scarce.
HOG (Harley-Davidson) also attracted fresh shorts. Its SI rose 2.5 points to 16.6%. The iconic motorcycle brand has been struggling with tariff headwinds and slowing demand.
CRWV (CoreWeave) gained short interest too. Bears added 1.9 points week-on-week, pushing SI to 18.4%. Despite AI buzz surrounding the stock, shorts are not convinced.
The biggest cover story belongs to WOLF (Wolfspeed). Short interest dropped nearly 9 points to 117.9% — still extremely elevated, but the retreat is notable. Availability is effectively zero, meaning new shorts can barely enter.
CHWY remains one of the most shorted large names at 57.7%. Bears trimmed 2 points this week but conviction stays high. LCID sits at 35.3% and trades near 52-week lows, keeping it a social media talking point.
FICO added 2.2 points to reach 10.8% — a quiet but steady build by bears targeting the credit scoring firm. Meanwhile, NVDA shorts remain minimal at 1.3% despite heavy AI-sector news flow around OpenAI's IPO filing.
