CleanSpark Short Interest Climbs to 33% Amid Bitcoin Price Pressure
CLSK sits 56% above its 52-week low of $8.
Summary
CleanSpark's short interest climbed to 33.04% in June, up from 32.76%, making it the most heavily shorted crypto company with a market value over $2 billion. This significant bearish sentiment comes as Bitcoin prices have declined and U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $4.5 billion in net outflows. This follows the company's Q2 net loss of $378.3 million and a 24.9% revenue decline, primarily due to falling Bitcoin prices. The high short positioning indicates a strong market divide on the company's prospects amidst a challenging crypto cycle.
At the time of this announcement, CLSK was trading at $12.46 on NASDAQ in the Crypto Assets sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $3.2B. The 52-week trading range was $8.00 to $23.61.
