Shorting Funko shares

There are currently 3.7 million Funko shares held short by investors – that's known as Funko's "short interest". This figure is 2.9% down from 3.8 million last month.

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

Funko's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Funko's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Funko shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Funko shares traded daily (recently around 612194.06919275). Funko's SIR currently stands at 6.07. In other words for every 100,000 Funko shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6070 shares are currently held short.

However Funko's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Funko shares, or, against the total number of tradable Funko shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Funko's short interest could be expressed as 0.08% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Funko shares in existence, roughly 80 shares are currently held short) or 0.1823% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Funko shares, roughly 182 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 Funko.
