- RH emerged as the most shorted stock among consumer discretionary companies with over $2B in market cap, based on March-end short interest data.
- Amazon (AMZN) featured among the least shorted names in the same consumer discretionary segment, highlighting how short bets remained concentrated in a narrow set of stocks.
Why it matters: The March-end data shows short interest in large-cap consumer discretionary stocks remained concentrated in select names rather than spread across the sector, with a stark gap between heavily shorted RH and lightly shorted Amazon — pointing to sharply differing investor conviction on these two names' near-term outlooks.
