☆ These are the stocks that short sellers are betting against even as the market rallies
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-13 | by ( Jesse Pound | In Jesse-Pound | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Hedge funds and other short sellers are betting against plenty of stocks even as the market sets new record highs. Many short sellers have pulled back since the start of the meme stock craze, but the practice of betting against stocks is still around. But with interest rates falling and stocks broadly climbing this week, those targeted stocks could be candidates for a so-called short squeeze. In certain cases, this can create a feedback loop where the extra buying pressure forces other short sellers to do the same. That performance could make them more likely to have a short squeeze in the near term, though the exact financial position of those short sellers is unknown.

The most popular dog in the country for the last two years has been the French bulldog, beloved for its batlike ears and deep wrinkles. That may be why “Frenchies” are the second-most-expensive dog breed to insure, behind the Cane Corso, a mastiff, according to Spot Pet Insurance, one of dozens of companies selling pet health insurance. The company recently ranked the costliest breeds of dogs and cats to cover, noting that some purebreds may be more expensive because their genetic makeup makes them susceptible to certain health conditions. The rankings were based on average policy premiums as well as the most costly claim paid for the breed, said Trey Ferro, chief executive of Spot Pet Insurance, which has 330,000 active policies. At the other end, the cheapest breeds to insure were the Chihuahua and the Maltipoo, a Maltese-poodle cross.

He stressed that the whole packaged food group usually does well in a slowdown and suggested also looking into Tyson Foods , Hormel , General Mills , Conagra and Kellanova .

“Our research approach is community science,” Lohi, who was corresponding author on the study, told CNN. Researchers dubbed the cats' unusual coat coloring as salmiak, or “salty licorice,” after a popular Finnish candy. Now that salty licorice cats are officially a thing, could they become the next designer breed? “It is possible that breeders will choose to develop a population of salty licorice cats,” Lohi said. “However, the health of the salty licorice cats should be followed in more detail to confirm the absence of any color-related health issues.” Tailored genetic testing could be used to ensure the cats are bred without passing on dangerous genes.
