Short Interest Update: CRML
Critical Metals Corp (CRML) is heading into its October 6 earnings print as one of the most heavily shorted small-cap miners on the Nasdaq. Ortex estimates place short interest at 25.7% of the free float, representing a 13% increase over the past week.
Beyond the high short interest, the lending market is under pressure. Utilization has surged to 92.68%, nearing the 52-week high of 100%. This high utilization, combined with rising short interest, indicates that the borrow market is near its tightest point in a year, increasing the risk of a volatility event around the upcoming earnings release.
