Most Shorted Stocks Are Crashing Yesterday, when GME was still trading at $300, we warned traders that the squeeze was almost over because as calculated by S3 Partners, the short interest had collapsed from over 110% to 53%… … and warned subs in our private twitter feed to take cover. For some reason, we got a lot of grief from the “diamond hands” crew for simply reporting the facts (and as we explained for those wondering, the most desperate shorts went so far as raiding the XRT ETF to obtain GME shares), which are manifesting themselves vividly this morning, with GME crashing by more than half from when we warned yesterday, and was last trading at just $142… … while the other top meme stock, AMC was down to $9 after rising as high as $18 on Monday. There was no respite across the most-shorted sector, with virtually all of last week’s most popular names tumbling including silver.. … as attention now seems to be shifting to biotechs where names like VXRT, DVAX and BCRX sharply higher today.

This Is The Stunning Way Some Desperate Funds Covered Their Gamestop Shorts On Friday we reported that while every hedge fund bro and TikTok-ing Millennial has been glued to the meltup in heavily-shorted stocks like GME (and the meltdown in the hedge funds who were heavily-short), there has been significant impacts under the covers of the rest of the financial markets that few have (for now) noticed. One place where the unintended consequences of the short squeeze hit hard was FANG stocks in particular, and the most popular and liquid names held by hedgies (i.e., the Goldman Hedge Fund VIP basket) which have seen liquidations to meet margin calls, as well as due to VaR shocked-induced gross leverage drawdowns.

Gamestop Distortion Sparks Unprecedented Collapse In Retail ETF Assets While every TikTok-ing Millennial and their emotional-support-rabbit has been glued to the meltup in heavily-shorted stocks like GME (and the meltdown in the hedge funds who were heavily-short), there has been significant impacts under the covers of the rest of the financial markets that few have (for now) noticed. Yes, FANG stocks (and the most liquid names held by hedgies) have seen liquidations to meet margin calls, the outsized influence from the booming video-game retailer has altered some ETF compositions and is forcing what Citi analysts call “ad-hoc rebalances and strategy adjustments.” In a rather stunning move, Bloomberg reports that investors have pulled roughly $700 million from the SPDR S&P Retail ETF (XRT) this week, draining total assets to just $164 million. Source: Bloomberg The outflows come after GameStop’s surge swelled its weighting in XRT to 20% – given that the fund tracks an equal-weighted index, the video game retailer’s weighting should be closer to 1%.
