Shorting Farfetch shares

There are currently 21.5 million Farfetch shares held short by investors – that's known as Farfetch's "short interest". This figure is 5.6% down from 22.8 million last month.

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

Farfetch's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Farfetch's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Farfetch shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Farfetch shares traded daily (recently around 7.1 million). Farfetch's SIR currently stands at 3.04. In other words for every 100,000 Farfetch shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3040 shares are currently held short.

However Farfetch's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Farfetch shares, or, against the total number of tradable Farfetch shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Farfetch's short interest could be expressed as 0.06% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Farfetch shares in existence, roughly 60 shares are currently held short) or 0.1006% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Farfetch shares, roughly 101 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 Farfetch.
