Shorting Assertio shares

There are currently 1.0 million Assertio shares held short by investors – that's known as Assertio's "short interest". This figure is 15.6% up from 891,829 last month.

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

Assertio's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Assertio's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Assertio shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Assertio shares traded daily (recently around 706312.32876712). Assertio's SIR currently stands at 1.46. In other words for every 100,000 Assertio shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1460 shares are currently held short.

However Assertio's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Assertio shares, or, against the total number of tradable Assertio shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Assertio's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Assertio shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.0241% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Assertio shares, roughly 24 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 Assertio.

However, indirectly, the new 300% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Assertio shares which in turn could have impacted Assertio's share price.

Assertio share price volatility

This would suggest that Assertio's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
