There are still a lot of people who are using short selling

Jim Chanos, known on Wall Street as a well-known bear market position, is closing an asset management hedge fund specialized in short-term selling, The Wall Street Journal reports.
For nearly four decades, Chanos has expressed a contentious stance on overvalued or fraudulent companies, and has suffered losses in long-term bets on companies such as Tesla and AOL while generating profits from the downfall of Enron.
Recently, Chanos told WSJ that he has been struggling to invest in his bear position, especially at a time when the market is on the rise. “The market for what I do has changed,” he said.
Now his company, Chanos & Co., now manages less than $200 million in assets, a steep drop from its peak of $6 billion in 2008.
His company’s fund is down 4% this year, in contrast to the 19% gain in the S&P 500 index, which includes dividends. In particular, Tesla shares are up about 90% this year, strengthening the EV maker’s market cap.
Chanos is known for his bear stance on Tesla and recently said the EV maker’s shares are “interestingly valued.”
Chanos, 65, acknowledges the market’s shift and plans to return most of his investor funds by the end of this year.
With the withdrawal of hedge funds, Chanos is unlikely to step away from the financial world altogether.
According to WSJ, he will focus on advisory and research services for selected customers and will also manage separate accounts.
His main concern now is short selling to high-priced data storage companies and real estate investment trusts that are thought to lose out on continued high interest rates.
