At the end of the day, the company's share price had slipped by nearly 2%.So whatThe entity behind this revelation is short-interest researcher S3 Partners, which found that Apple recently unseated electric-vehicle (EV) maker Tesla for the No. 1 most-shorted crown. All told, said position -- i.e., the total value of shares borrowed for shorting purposes -- is just over $18.4 billion for Apple. That tops the current $17.4 billion-plus for Tesla.The EV company wasn't easy to dislodge. S3 Partners said that the frequently volatile Tesla was the most-shorted stock for 864 days straight, i.e. nearly 2 1/2 years, dating back to April 2020. In a research note, S3 Partners said that, \"The change in the top spot in the short interest rankings was primarily based on short sellers cutting their TSLA exposure and not a huge jump in AAPL short selling.\"But the \"shorts\" might also consider Apple vulnerable, given the anticipated slowdown in China -- a key market for the company. Worries about discretionary consumer spending in the face of inflation might also be leading some to effectively place a bet against the company's success.Now whatWhile this development is something to keep an eye on, it does need some perspective. Compared to Tesla, Apple is a massively capitalized beast. Its total market cap is over $2.4 trillion (yes, that's trillion), with over 16 billion shares outstanding.Tesla's figures are a respective $918 billion and 3 billion-plus. So proportionally, Tesla is much more heavily shorted, at 1.9% of outstanding shares, versus only 0.7% for Apple.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":null,"is_publish_highlight":null,"is_publish_live":null,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":9937932762,"gmtCreate":1663338929956,"gmtModify":1676537255469,"author":{"id":"3582502134655895","authorId":"3582502134655895","name":"Bspn","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"K","listText":"K","text":"K","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9937932762","repostId":2267658346,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":103973552,"gmtCreate":1663421404757,"gmtModify":1663421408061,"authorId":3582502134655895,"author":{"id":3582502134655895,"authorId":3582502134655895,"name":"Bspn","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":9937932762,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"k","text":"k","html":"k"}],"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9937093770,"gmtCreate":1663314351690,"gmtModify":1676537250749,"author":{"id":"4122446833153522","authorId":"4122446833153522","name":"LouisKangean","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"hat":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a8758340a08196056f8bc1e54805193","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":1},"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9937093770","repostId":2267658346,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9934753826,"gmtCreate":1663305845565,"gmtModify":1676537249153,"author":{"id":"3586406638423368","authorId":"3586406638423368","name":"MBE","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/819dcae50fc62e5a41b7d625052bd116","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"So go or not?","listText":"So go or not?","text":"So go or not?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9934753826","repostId":2267658346,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9934780409,"gmtCreate":1663300351701,"gmtModify":1676537248054,"author":{"id":"3572005079747641","authorId":"3572005079747641","name":"rogerl","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/70a75678cb06207361b08aa8e42a9ecd","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Ok&nbsp;","listText":"Ok&nbsp;","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9934780409","repostId":2267658346,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9934735660,"gmtCreate":1663298831350,"gmtModify":1676537247535,"author":{"id":"3576279418760291","authorId":"3576279418760291","name":"William C","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/fb9f11370915ffd45c2c37d8b0d22d50","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"like","listText":"like","text":"like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9934735660","repostId":2267658346,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":9934733702,"gmtCreate":1663297979207,"gmtModify":1676537247336,"author":{"id":"4094787128284850","authorId":"4094787128284850","name":"Gladys8jk","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/789bbf473867763cd44be080e269826d","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9934733702","repostId":2267658346,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":122,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko;
