NIO is currently facing its most restrictive borrowing environment on record. According to the latest data from Ortex, share utilization has hit 100%, matching the stock's 52-week peak. With availability now constrained to just 4.7% of total short interest, the cost of maintaining bearish positions is likely to face upward pressure. This extreme scarcity of lendable shares often precedes volatility, as short sellers may find it increasingly difficult to source shares to cover or maintain their positions. Investors should monitor the cost-to-borrow (CTB) closely, as any further tightening in supply could trigger a squeeze.
