Replying to @adamfeuerstein
On Monday we noted prior short builds in $RVMD this year got run over, but the increase in shorts since mid-Sept is paying off so far, aiming at a crowded hedge fund long.

Is this the thing that finally bursts the AI bubble?
I put that to my partner @BobSloanS3 on the latest Risk & Return.
We look at what comes next for $NVDA and the AI trade: the SEC question over the denial, the shareholder lawsuits, and a financing window for AI companies that's nearly shut.

Momentum stocks owned by many hedge funds in small size: up 6% this year. Owned by a few funds in big size: up 19%.
@BobSloanS3 on why crowding matters, and how S3 data showed the crowded names breaking two weeks before the Nov 5 sell-off.

Why does one CEO matter this much? $NVDA is the dominant supplier of the chips behind the AI buildout. Those chips go to the hyperscalers and the neoclouds, which use the computing power themselves and rent it to the AI labs.
On Wednesday's Risk & Return, before reports that Nvidia's board was preparing to act, @BobSloanS3 laid out what would decide Jensen Huang's future: any breach of national security guardrails, favoritism or related-party dealing.
@CGasparino called the sequence: a tough investigation, a succession plan, then the class actions. Later in the show the second report hit, live.

Jensen Huang is out at $NVDA. On this week's Risk & Return I said he was a goner and that it would happen sooner rather than later.
Also on the show with @BobSloanS3: Nvidia had no succession plan, $CRWV shorts down $848M after earnings, and the S3 data that flagged the sell-off two weeks early.

New episode of Risk & Return, streaming now! With S3 founder and managing partner @BobSloanS3 and @CGasparino of the NY Post and Fox Business.
What the midterms mean for markets: why the Dow rallied 1,000 points, and why AI could be the one issue both parties agree on.
Shorts held their bets against aerospace and defense into the vote, with short interest at a one-year high above 8% of float.
The neoclouds are down 38% since August, the worst of any AI buildout group, and shorts and active managers are both adding. $CRWV $NBIS $IREN CoreWeave reports next week with shorts up 34% since August 31. Five of its six reports have been followed by a drop.

The Dems took Congress, which means hearings, and it means they control the purse strings.
The shorts saw it coming in defense. @BobSloanS3: short interest hit a one-year high into the vote, and they didn't cover the October bounce.

Thank you @CharlotteYTYang @business for highlighting @S3Partners positioning data on BYD - 1211 HK.
Short sellers are paring back bets against BYD ahead of earnings, with the Chinese electric vehicle giant poised to post a rebound in profit helped by accelerating overseas sales and a domestic market recovery bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

The more I report it out, the more I tend to believe that the AI collapse wont be a collapse in the classic sense that we're used to, ie the 2000 meltdown in dotcom stocks like Pets.com that takes down EVERY part of the tech sector before the best comes back. This will be more segmented. The @CoreWeave's of the world aka the neoclouds get hammered as financing dries up for all but best in breed; @Meta benefits because its AI push is powered by a diversified biz model that pumps out lots of cash. @SpaceX -- first out of the box -- capitalizes for the same reason and because @elonmusk is brilliant and has already done his IPO. @AnthropicAI and @OpenAI get their financing done, but the markets will pick the winner. @BobSloanS3 and I will discuss all of the above at 4pm edt on the latest edition of "Risk and Return" plus @S3Partners latest data on market positioning and my scoops

KOSPI short interest has more than tripled since South Korea lifted its short selling ban: ~1.5% of float in March 2025 to 5.0% now.
Shorts kept building into the June high and barely budged through a 40% correction.

S3's founder & managing partner @BobSloanS3 explained the CoreWeave story and called it the most important stock in the market March 13, on @BloombergTV with @daniburgz & @mattmiller1973.
Tune in to the latest episode of Risk & Return to see the latest updates on CoreWeave positioning and what the data is saying now! Streaming links in comments.
$CRWV
🔎 Borrows are the naked mole rat of data. Blind. Buried. Useless.
Right now, S3's short interest data is surfacing something the rest of the market is still catching up to. And it starts with the most important stock in the market: $CRWV.
CoreWeave is the levered stress test for the entire Nvidia demand thesis. Borrow money. Buy chips. Rent compute. Hope the revenue outruns the debt service. Shorts don't believe it. 🚨
But the real story is the connectivity.
— $CRWV: The market is voting against the model.
— $OWL: Shorts don't believe the marks. Blue Owl is Bear Stearns. Today.
— $ORCL: $100B of investment grade debt trading at 2008 CDS levels. Short interest 2, 3, 4 standard deviations from the mean. The Lehman to Blue Owl's Bear Stearns?
📣 Bob accurately said that these software business models are hard to replace and correctly read the ORCL situation.
S3's @BobSloanS3 walked through all of it live on @BloombergTV. 👇

Last week on Risk & Return I reported Meta was setting up for a monster secondary before the Anthropic IPO. Yesterday Zuck confirmed it with a new share class to pay for the AI build.
The shorts smelled it first. @S3Partners data had Meta short interest climbing since August.
