Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF) is currently experiencing sustained short-selling pressure, having been listed on the FINRA Reg SHO threshold list for 79 consecutive days. This long-term presence on the list indicates ongoing difficulties in settling short positions, a hallmark of high-conviction bearish bets. Current data shows short interest at 10% of the float. While the borrow fee is currently modest at 0.3%, the combination of a high threshold score and consistent short volume suggests that institutional shorts are not yet retreating. Traders should monitor this ticker for any sudden spikes in borrow costs, which could signal a tightening of available shares for lending.
