Shorting Gossamer Bio shares

There are currently 9.9 million Gossamer Bio shares held short by investors – that's known as Gossamer Bio's "short interest". This figure is 21% up from 8.1 million last month.

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

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

Gossamer Bio's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Gossamer Bio shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Gossamer Bio shares traded daily (recently around 476597.53384913). Gossamer Bio's SIR currently stands at 20.68. In other words for every 100,000 Gossamer Bio shares traded daily on the market, roughly 20680 shares are currently held short.

However Gossamer Bio's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Gossamer Bio shares, or, against the total number of tradable Gossamer Bio shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Gossamer Bio's short interest could be expressed as 0.14% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Gossamer Bio shares in existence, roughly 140 shares are currently held short) or 0.1767% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Gossamer Bio shares, roughly 177 shares are currently held short).

A SIR above 20% would generally be considered very high, pointing to a pessimistic outlook for the share price, with a discouraging number of investors currently willing to bet against Gossamer Bio.
