There are currently 321,197 Apollo Endosurgery shares held short by investors – that's known as Apollo Endosurgery's "short interest". This figure is 389.7% up from 65,596 last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Apollo Endosurgery shares can be evaluated.

Apollo Endosurgery's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

However Apollo Endosurgery's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Apollo Endosurgery shares, or, against the total number of tradable Apollo Endosurgery shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Apollo Endosurgery's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Apollo Endosurgery shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0202% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Apollo Endosurgery shares, roughly 20 shares are currently held short).

Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Apollo Endosurgery.
