Woofun AI reports that Tesla shares closed down more than 14%, driven by second-quarter earnings that missed expectations and renewed skepticism regarding its artificial intelligence and robotics strategies. Ihor Dusaniwsky, Managing Director at S3 Partners, indicated that this decline generated approximately $4.12 billion in single-day mark-to-market profits for investors holding short positions. Data from S3 reveals that roughly 3% of Tesla's outstanding shares are currently sold short.
