AKTS short interest jumps 10% to 16.2% float

Watch: Monitor upcoming clinical or FDA news that could shift bearish sentiment that currently drives elevated short pressure.

Short interest in Aktis Oncology rose nearly 10% to 2.57 million shares, representing 16.2% of the float. Days to cover stand at 8.1, signaling persistent bearish bets despite prior insider buying and strong cash reserves. The stock trades 11% below its 52-week high amid a downtrend and negative operating margins above -900%.

Growing short interest indicates mounting market skepticism against recent insider buying and analyst bullishness, raising short-term downside risk.
