LAB's got a negative fee rate hitting over -2% right now, making the shorting costs absolutely ridiculous. But here's the kicker: the bears are still piling in, which is pretty interesting—either they're super confident in the drop or they're just stuck holding the bag. Either way, it's good news for the bulls. But we gotta keep an eye on the risks too. Such extreme rates usually mean the market sentiment is heavily skewed, and if the big players decide to flip the script, the price could easily wreck the shorts. But watch out, if the big players use this bullish sentiment to offload, it could create a local top. So the safest play right now is to wait for a confirmed direction before jumping in. In the short term, LAB is likely to see some fierce battles around the 25 mark. If it can hang tight and chew through the short energy, any upward move will be more solid; if it spikes straight up, we might need to be cautious about a pullback. Keep your position sizes in check and don’t let emotions steer you off course.
