Bearish bets on US stocks are surging:
Short interest in the S&P 500 is up to ~3.7% of its free float, near the highest in data going back to 2010.
Short interest in the Russell 3000 is up to ~6.1%, also near an all-time high.
Both metrics have steadily increased since the start of 2025.
Furthermore, short interest across all NYSE-listed stocks rose to a record 9.0% of shares outstanding in late June.
By comparison, this metric peaked at ~5.0% during the 2008 Financial Crisis and ~6.0% during the 2020 pandemic.
Conditions for a short-squeeze are rising.
@Parodyjeffx Lmao it is kinda funny that an illegal alien that invaded America and joined the army to get citizenship was actually just sent to die for Israel
