DIS heads into its November 11 earnings date with the Street quietly growing more constructive, short positioning at low levels, and options traders only mildly more cautious than usual. The most notable move this week…
Barrick Mining heads into its November 9 earnings with the stock down on the month, short positioning minimal, and a cluster of insider selling from the summer still fresh in institutional memory. The price tells the…
MNDY heads into its November earnings with shorts cutting exposure sharply, yet analysts have been moving to the sidelines just as fast, leaving the stock caught between two forms of capitulation. The positioning…
JSW has given back ground this week, falling 3.6% to PLN 32.85, reversing part of the bounce that followed last week's production-cut shock and leaving the stock down nearly 13% over 30 days. The price action reflects…
Iovance Biotherapeutics has given back 7% this week to $13.62, but the more striking development is what has happened in the short book: bears have now covered nearly 40% of their position from the September peak, and…
Nebius Group extends its slide to $188.41, down another 14% on the week, putting the stock 21% below the $232 to $244 range where the COO was selling two weeks ago. Options positioning has become the most pointed…
TeraWulf posted a sharp 9.4% gain on Thursday to close at $12.62, yet the week still ends in the red, down 7.5%, and a clutch of analyst target cuts published this week frames the bounce as a reprieve rather than a…
CHWY has had a contradictory week: the stock rallied 14% while short sellers added aggressively to their positions, a divergence that sets up an interesting test of conviction on both sides heading into the December 2…
Rezolve AI has entered a new phase of borrow stress, with availability collapsing from 22% to near-zero in a single session even as the stock fell 15% on the week. The lending market tells the most urgent story right…

Rocket Lab has given back most of last week's 7.7% gain in a single week, falling 14.4% to $64.22 as a broad sector selloff met a fresh round of analyst target cuts. The analyst picture is the clearest explanation for…
Hertz Global Holdings is approaching its November 5 earnings date with borrow costs surging to a new high and short interest continuing to grind upward, even as the stock sits flat on the week. The single most striking…

DNP has now broken above the analyst consensus price target and paused there, with earnings three weeks out and the short-side showing no sign of rebuilding in earnest. The position on the lending side is little…

Novavax finds itself in an odd position this week: the stock is up 13% and bears are still running the show. The plague-scare rally that drove a 20% single-day gain on October 5 has largely held this time, unlike the…
