Shorting MannKind Corporation shares

There are currently 21.7 million MannKind Corporation shares held short by investors – that's known as MannKind Corporation's "short interest". This figure is 14.6% down from 25.4 million last month.

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

MannKind Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

MannKind Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of MannKind Corporation shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of MannKind Corporation shares traded daily (recently around 3.2 million). MannKind Corporation's SIR currently stands at 6.78. In other words for every 100,000 MannKind Corporation shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6780 shares are currently held short.

However MannKind Corporation's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of MannKind Corporation shares, or, against the total number of tradable MannKind Corporation shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case MannKind Corporation's short interest could be expressed as 0.09% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 MannKind Corporation shares in existence, roughly 90 shares are currently held short) or 0.094% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable MannKind Corporation shares, roughly 94 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 MannKind Corporation.

However, indirectly, the new 400% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for MannKind Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted MannKind Corporation's share price.
