Yesterday on Risk & Return, @BobSloanS3: "Look at $CRWV short interest in comparison to the price action. They've got it right. So specialists leaving short interest rising. Probably not so great for the stock." We've been covering CoreWeave $CRWV positioning all year, on yesterday's show we went back over the timely positioning updates YTD and broke down the current setup. March on Bloomberg: "Shorts don’t like the business model, it’s a leveraged bet on outrunning the debt." youtu.be/fEyH1tYq5eI?si=J3aI…

M3 (2413.JP) short interest triples to 20% of float — rare for Japan — as its four-year distress spiral deepens But S3's squeeze score = 75 w/ analysts turning bullish. Crowded momentum short meets contrarian consensus: tinyurl.com/35wc3ptj 👈 #Japan #APAC

New episode of Risk & Return is live on YouTube, Spotify & Apple Podcasts! S3 positioning data on CoreWeave, Oracle & Blue Owl is telling a very story than the headlines. Passive investors are absorbing CoreWeave shorts. Oracle ownership has stabilized — the data shows a bottom. And Blue Owl's short interest is declining. @BobSloan of S3 Partners and @CGasparino break down the week's biggest market themes. Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/3Ia… Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas… YouTube: youtu.be/12nkBnI2OWM?si=bJK3…

Hedge fund ownership in $ORCL peaked at ~40M shares in September 2025 and has since declined around 24M shares. Passive and active long holders are holding steady at current levels. Buyers have rotated out of over 50% of their positions — and the data shows ownership finding a floor. Positioning data is the key to current markets.

Over the last 15 years, the structure of the market has changed dramatically. Positioning is now just as important as price, volatility, or interest rates. @BobSloan breaks it down on this week's Risk & Return with @CGasparino. Passive capital flows in automatically every month — 401(k) money doesn't panic. It just buys. That changes how you read a selloff. $CRWV is a clear example right now. Shorts have added ~18% more shares over three months. But passive ownership has nearly doubled, absorbing every bet against the stock. That's not a failing trade — that's a tug of war where one side has a structural advantage. Knowing where the long and the short is — by cohort and by style — gives you a stronger signal than price alone. youtu.be/12nkBnI2OWM?si=K7Of… — Clip starts at 36:11

Short interest in $CRWV has grown ~18% over the past three months. Bears are betting the hardware ages out faster than the company says — making the debt load look riskier. But passive ownership has nearly doubled, absorbing every new short position added. Sticky, long-duration money is sitting on the other side of that trade. With an $8.5B GPU-backed syndicated loan on the books, CoreWeave is the leverage stress test of the Nvidia business model. The positioning will tell you how that test is going.
