MP Materials Lending Market Constraints
MP Materials (MP) is facing significant short-selling pressure, with short interest currently estimated at 20.4% of the float. According to Ortex data, utilization has been capped at 100% for the past month, and borrow availability has hit zero as the company approaches its November 5 earnings date. This level of utilization indicates that virtually all lendable shares are currently on loan, making it extremely difficult for new short positions to be established. The combination of high short interest and zero availability creates a precarious environment for short sellers, as any positive catalyst could trigger a rapid covering event.
