USB's Short Interest Drops 35% Indicating Bullish Shift

Watch: Watch next earnings for signs of resilience amid cautious CFO outlook and ongoing M&A activity that could drive credit demand.

Short interest in USB fell 34.9% to 11,236 shares, dropping from 17,269 shares. The short percent of float stands at 0.0% with zero days to cover, signaling minimal short pressure. Despite recent insider selling and a 5.23% drop in the last month, the reduced short interest suggests improving market sentiment.

The sharp reduction in short interest points to waning bearish bets, potentially setting the stage for a technical rebound after recent insider selling and price weakness.
