AI stock shorting gains reach 6B in October
The U.S. stock markets in the artificial intelligence sector experienced a broad wave of selling, benefiting from speculators betting on declines, who managed to make approximately $6 billion in profits during October. The proportion of short-sold shares increased significantly, particularly in companies such as "Coorwave," "Iren," "Nebios Group," "Applied Digital," and "Core Scientific," reflecting investors' concerns over ongoing risks associated with debt financing linked to the expansion of the AI infrastructure sector. Several companies' shares declined sharply; for example, "Coorwave" lost about 30% of its value during the month, resulting in substantial book gains for those betting on its fall. Meanwhile, "Nebios," "Iren," and "Applied Digital" collectively recorded over $1.2 billion in gains in October. These shifts come amid growing investor caution regarding financing risks and the sustainability of sector expansion, amid a significant decline in stock prices at the start of trading sessions.
