AYA is flashing a sharp contradiction. The stock has rallied 23% over the past month to AUD 4.95. Short sellers have been cutting positions. Yet the cost to borrow has erupted to levels that suggest someone urgently…
Unusual Machines has doubled in a week — and the trigger wasn't an earnings beat or an analyst upgrade. It was the White House. Reports emerged on May 28 that the Trump administration is in active talks to take equity…
Bitdeer Technologies Group is running hard into the close of May — up 23% on the week and 60% over the past month — yet short sellers have barely flinched, leaving a tightly coiled tension between price momentum and…

Navitas Semiconductor closed Tuesday at $31.79 — up 64% on the week — and the short sellers who have been riding this position for months still haven't blinked. The short interest story has been the dominant thread…

INFY heads into the final week of May with a fractured picture: short sellers are quietly reducing exposure, yet the borrow market remains as tight as it has been all year. The headline story from earlier this week —…
