Shorting EverQuote shares

There are currently 2.6 million EverQuote shares held short by investors – that's known as EverQuote's "short interest". This figure is 10.1% down from 2.9 million last month.

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

EverQuote's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

EverQuote's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of EverQuote shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of EverQuote shares traded daily (recently around 371443.45323741). EverQuote's SIR currently stands at 6.95. In other words for every 100,000 EverQuote shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6950 shares are currently held short.

However EverQuote's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of EverQuote shares, or, against the total number of tradable EverQuote shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case EverQuote's short interest could be expressed as 0.09% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 EverQuote shares in existence, roughly 90 shares are currently held short) or 0.1581% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable EverQuote shares, roughly 158 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 EverQuote.

EverQuote share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, EverQuote's shares have ranged in value from as little as $17.76 up to $63.44. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while EverQuote's is 1.6451. This would suggest that EverQuote's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
