Despite the impressive statistics, a significant number of investors remain skeptical about Tesla's future. Based on research conducted by the American company S3, Tesla currently has open short positions amounting to $22 billion, equating to 2.7% of the company's total value. This figure slightly exceeds the average short interest rate seen in S&P 500 companies, which stands at 2%.

 

Tesla continues to maintain its status as the company with the highest short interest among major corporations, with Elon Musk even speculating that Bill Gates might be among those shorting Tesla, given Gates' previous short positions on the company in mid-2022.

 

Despite the significant amount, in relation to the value of the company and in relation to other companies in the same sector, its situation is much better than its competitor RIVIAN. The Rivian automobile company has shorts in the amount of 2.2$ billion, but due to the fact that the value of the company is small compared to Tesla, the amount of shorts in Rivian reflects about 12% of the company's market value. At Fisker, for example, this rate stands at 43%, Lucid with 23% and Nikola with 21%.
