🎁Warning?! Have You Shorted Any Stocks?

According to a report released by S3 Partners on Thursday,

Short bets against Nvidia stand at $34 billion, nearly equivalent to the combined short interest of $Apple(AAPL)$ and $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ .

S3 data shows that the outstanding short bets against Apple currently amount to about $19 billion, while those against Tesla amount to about $18 billion.

It is worth noting that despite the seemingly staggering size of the short interest, according to LSEG's data, short bets against Nvidia currently only represent approximately 1% of its market capitalization.

WSB users say:

Only the most shorted stock by dollar amount. No biggie.

Checks market cap…

I thought it said there were only 34 people trying to short NVDA which I think would’ve made equally as much sense.

How do you view? Will the $34 billion short volumn bring Nvidia down?

But whatever, the real risk is stock split. Some users sugeest: Gonna be some profit taking on the split.

Have you ever had any experience shorting stocks?

Did you make a significant profit or suffer heavy losses?

Short interest in stocks has been declining, and some high-profile short sellers have reduced their short-selling activity or even exited the business.

      Here are some of the articles I found:

      As a financial analyst, I will provide an analysis of Nvidia Corporation (NVDA) based on the available information.

      Business and Industry:Nvidia is a leading technology company that designs and manufactures graphics processing units (GPUs) and system-on-a-chip units (SoCs) for gaming, professional visualization, data centers, and automotive markets.

      Earnings and Forecast:According to the latest earnings data, Nvidia reported an EPS of $6.04 in Q1 2025, with a net profit margin of 57.14%. The company has a strong financial position, with a quick ratio of 2.88 and a current ratio of 3.53. Looking at the earnings forecast, analysts expect Nvidia's EPS to reach $42.04 in 2027FY, with a forecasted gross income of $188.65 billion and forecasting EBIT of $120.36 billion.

        

      Recent Trends:The stock price of Nvidia has been showing an upward trend. As of June 7, 2024, the stock price is $1193.145.

    Baptism by fire on short $NVDA 20240607 1270.0 CALL$! Initiated a short position on near $1200 strike calls as price spiked. Took a max drawdown of 500% early as NVDA ripped, but managed to claw some premium back on the dip today. Still a learning experience, but the theta gang is happy today

    Treat the loss on short NVDA as learning lesson. Nvidia's stock has scorched short sellers to the tune of $20 billion this year. Frankly NVIDIA’s share price’s incredible run is due to its strong fundamental factors.NVDA is now $1204 per share. Thanks @Meme_Tiger
