Rapid Accumulation of Short Positions in PAGS
PagSeguro (PAGS) experienced a volatile session on October 27, 2026, with the stock falling 25% as short sellers aggressively increased their exposure. ORTEX data indicates that short positions surged by 23% in a single day. This bearish activity was catalyzed by a Citigroup downgrade to Neutral, which, when combined with insider selling and a record put-call ratio, suggests a significant shift in market sentiment toward the Brazilian fintech firm.
