Pontiac, Michigan-based rival UWM Holdings Corp (NYSE:UWMC) also saw a surge in share price Tuesday as a sympathy play to Rocket and the strength of the company’s earnings.
UWM Holdings announced it has been included in the preliminary list of recent IPOs that could be added to the Russell 1000 and Russell 3000 indexes, which could have also played into Tuesday’s share price rise.
Shares could be moving higher Wednesday as investors look at UWM Holdings' high short interest.
“Why is there a 14% short position in UWMC? I know it is not as consistent as Rocket, but that does seem high,” Jim Cramer tweeted late Tuesday.
