Bearish Pressure Mounts on WOLF
Wolfspeed (WOLF) is facing intense bearish sentiment as we enter November. According to near-real-time data from Ortex, short interest has surged to 87.5% of the company's free float. This represents a significant 6 percentage point increase over the past week, signaling that institutional and retail shorts are doubling down on their positions despite the stock already being under heavy pressure.
Market Context
This surge in short interest places WOLF among the most heavily shorted names in the semiconductor and EV-adjacent sectors. With such a high percentage of the float sold short, the stock remains highly sensitive to any positive news or short-covering rallies. Investors should monitor borrow availability closely, as the high utilization rate suggests that finding shares to borrow is becoming increasingly difficult for new entrants.
