Shorting Generation Bio shares

There are currently 4.2 million Generation Bio shares held short by investors – that's known as Generation Bio's "short interest". This figure is 159.3% up from 1.6 million last month.

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

Generation Bio's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Generation Bio's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Generation Bio shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Generation Bio shares traded daily (recently around 633626.01503759). Generation Bio's SIR currently stands at 6.65. In other words for every 100,000 Generation Bio shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6650 shares are currently held short.

However Generation Bio's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Generation Bio shares, or, against the total number of tradable Generation Bio shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Generation Bio's short interest could be expressed as 0.07% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Generation Bio shares in existence, roughly 70 shares are currently held short) or 0.1183% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Generation Bio shares, roughly 118 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 Generation Bio.
