F&O stocks: Hindustan Aeronautics, Power Grid among 5 stocks with short buildup
To determine if a stock has seen a buildup of fresh short positions, we need to understand the concept of "short selling." Short selling occurs when a trader anticipates that the price of a stock will decrease. The trader sells the stock without actually owning it and then aims to buy it back at a lower price.
