Lending Market Tightness
Tesla (TSLA) is currently exhibiting increased pressure in the securities lending market. Near-real-time estimates from Ortex show a rise in utilization, indicating that a larger percentage of lendable shares are currently out on loan. While official FINRA short interest remains the gold standard for open positions, the intraday uptick in utilization and borrow costs suggests that short sellers are maintaining or increasing their exposure. Investors should watch for further spikes in borrow fees as a signal of potential short-side conviction.
