SpaceX seeing some interest from short sellers, but many still afraid to bet against Musk

Roughly 40 million SpaceX shares are sold short, representing an estimated 5% to 7% of publicly available shares. The report highlights positioning and sentiment around the privately held aerospace company rather than a fundamental business update. The figure may matter for trading dynamics in the secondary market, but it is unlikely to have a broad market impact.
