Shorting Eventbrite shares

There are currently 8.0 million Eventbrite shares held short by investors – that's known as Eventbrite's "short interest". This figure is 2.4% up from 7.8 million last month.

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

Eventbrite's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Eventbrite's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Eventbrite shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Eventbrite shares traded daily (recently around 1.2 million). Eventbrite's SIR currently stands at 6.43. In other words for every 100,000 Eventbrite shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6430 shares are currently held short.

However Eventbrite's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Eventbrite shares, or, against the total number of tradable Eventbrite shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Eventbrite's short interest could be expressed as 0.09% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Eventbrite shares in existence, roughly 90 shares are currently held short) or 0.1193% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Eventbrite shares, roughly 119 shares are currently held short).

A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Eventbrite.
