SpaceX's high valuation and volatile trading may tempt short sellers, but four factors make betting against the stock risky right now. The company's low public float has driven annualized borrowing costs to between 15% and 50%, making short positions expensive to maintain. Lockup expirations beginning after second-quarter earnings will unlock roughly 4.6 billion shares in waves, which could eventually ease borrowing costs but also trigger insider selling. Potential inclusion in major indexes like the Nasdaq-100 would force passive funds to buy shares, creating upward pressure, while Elon Musk's social media influence could spark sudden rallies that squeeze short sellers.
