HaveNots Shorts '25: Premium Subscriptions
8 tickers · $129.87B total market cap
Group: HaveNots Shorts
This short basket targets non-essential, premium-priced digital and lifestyle subscriptions—especially those dependent on affluent or aspirational users with discretionary income. These companies rely on habit formation and perceived personal value to justify recurring spend. In a tightening economy where the top decile pulls back, middle-class wallets are maxed, and MAUs plateau, the thesis is that many of these offerings become low-priority cancel targets as consumers rebalance their budgets and churn rises.
HaveNots Shorts '25: Premium Subscriptions tracks 8 publicly listed stocks in this theme: DUOL, HIMS, LTH, NYT, PTON, SPOT, XPOF, YOU. See the constituent table for details.
