SpaceX's stock has fallen about 28% from its June 16 peak following its June 12 IPO, wiping out hundreds of billions in market value. Despite this sharp decline, short selling remains modest, with only 5% to 7% of the float sold short, indicating cautious bearish sentiment. Ample liquidity and low borrowing costs suggest the market is undergoing normal price discovery rather than a short squeeze. Many traders and notable skeptics, including Michael Burry, are hesitant to bet against SpaceX due to its strong growth story and loyal retail investor base.
