Tesla
Amazon
Apple
Netflix
Microsoft

I get Tesla. I can even see an argument that Netflix is overhyped and won’t turn the corner.

But Amazon? Apple?

Amazon especially can turn the spigot on at will. They basically have the ability to overshoot earnings whenever they want to.

Given the week these stocks have had, are all of these shorts just bleeding from their eyes?

Amazon's valuation is nuts and I own the damn thing.

Also, those are the too 5 by total short position value. $9B short for a trillion dollar valuation like Apple is pretty irrelevant.

Most shorted names based off what metric? Can’t be short interest.
