Using the data from our partner, which utilizes the latest information from stock lenders to estimate short interest changes for thousands of publicly traded companies, this report will screen for some of biggest changes in short interest as a percentage of free float and days-to-cover ratios while also considering the short interest data on some of the more volatile and heavier-traded names of the week. Based on the availability of data from Ortex, the report tracks the trading period that covers prior Friday through Thursday of this week, excluding holidays.

This week however, the buildup in bearish positioning was far more pronounced, just as the company has finally completed its Cox Communications transaction with the acquisition of Liberty Broadband. Short interest as a percentage of free float on Charter Communications rose from 29.6% to 32.4%, the highest level on record for the stock. Days to cover on the name rose by a more modest margin from 7.2 to 7.9, reflecting the spike in trading volume on deal completion date.

The stock was down 4.6% in the five-day period covered through Thursday, but inclusive of Friday's 3% rise, it has now erased all of this year's losses. The company is set to report its Q2 results on September 3rd.SHORT INTEREST DECLINERSOrtex reported short interest in Surgery Partnershad tracked in a sideways range of 24% to 29% since the first week of March, though this week has seen a clear breakdown of expression in the bearish thesis, even though the stock has come under notable pressure since the company reported earnings on August 10th. Short interest as a percentage of free float in Surgery Partners slipped from 24.8% to 20.1% - the lowest levels since November of 2025. Days to cover also fell from 9.3 to 8.5, with an added boost coming from a rise in the number of sessions with relatively large trading volume. Even though the company's Q2 earnings topped estimates and the Street was largely positive on its announced divestitures, the stock fell 8% in the five-day period covered through Thursday. Shares bounced 4% on Friday however, bringing the year-to-date tally for the stock to a negative 6%.Ortex-reported short interest in Wix.compeaked near 34% of free float on June 12, preceding the multi-year low in the stock price by roughly a week. As the subsequent rebound in shares gained momentum, short positioning steadily unwound, with the bearish retreat becoming particularly pronounced this week.

Days-to-cover also declined from 4.7 to 4.4, reinforcing the broader trend of short covering.

UiPath Launches Developer-First Orchestration Platform Maestro Flow
UiPath announced UiPath Maestro Flow, a developer-first orchestration canvas combining the speed of modern, AI-native development with enterprise-grade durability and governance. Using Maestro Flow, builders can use supported coding agents to design, run, observe, and govern an end-to-end process as a single artifact, from prototype to production. Builders can use the coding agents they already rely on-including Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and Codex-to design, run, observe, and govern complete business processes as a single artifact, all from their native development environment, such as VS Code or UiPath Studio. It is a fast, code-first build experience directly on an enterprise-grade orchestration engine, so the version prototyped is the version that ships into production, without rebuilding or re-platforming.

The decline suggests short sellers have been locking in profits as the stock has extended its recent rebound. Days to cover also fell from 2.6 to 2.0, the lowest level since the first week of January, as trading volumes accelerated significantly throughout July. Shares gained 21.3% during the five-day period covered, although the stock remains 22% lower year to date. While UiPath continues to rank among the more heavily shorted software names, the sharp reduction in short interest and improving liquidity point to a meaningful easing in bearish conviction over the past two weeks and tracks with broader repositioning from the overbought semiconductor space toward the oversold software sector.Ortex-reported short interest in Figmahas retreated sharply after peaking at an all-time high above 36% of free float on July 6 and consolidating in the 33%–36% range over the past month. In the latest reporting period, bearish positioning plunged from 33.9% to 25.9%, the lowest level since the last week of May, suggesting short sellers have been aggressively covering into the stock's recent strength.
