Rapid Build in Bearish Positioning
TQQQ has seen a sharp increase in bearish bets, with short interest surging 27.9% in a single week to reach 3.9% of the float. This rapid accumulation of short positions is further evidenced by a 19.3% climb in the cost to borrow, which now sits at 1.22%. The combination of rising short interest and increasing borrow fees indicates that market participants are aggressively hedging or betting against the leveraged ETF.
