Shorting GreenSky shares

There are currently 4.5 million GreenSky shares held short by investors – that's known as GreenSky's "short interest". This figure is 27.2% down from 6.2 million last month.

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

GreenSky's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

GreenSky's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of GreenSky shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of GreenSky shares traded daily (recently around 885824.11764706). GreenSky's SIR currently stands at 5.1. In other words for every 100,000 GreenSky shares traded daily on the market, roughly 5100 shares are currently held short.

However GreenSky's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of GreenSky shares, or, against the total number of tradable GreenSky shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case GreenSky's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 GreenSky shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.1109% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable GreenSky shares, roughly 111 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 GreenSky.

GreenSky share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, GreenSky's shares have ranged in value from as little as $3.05 up to $8.34. 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 GreenSky's is 1.6527. This would suggest that GreenSky's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
