Shorting MarineMax shares

There are currently 2.2 million MarineMax shares held short by investors – that's known as MarineMax's "short interest". This figure is 23.1% up from 1.8 million last month.

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

MarineMax's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

MarineMax's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of MarineMax shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of MarineMax shares traded daily (recently around 560012.72727273). MarineMax's SIR currently stands at 3.85. In other words for every 100,000 MarineMax shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3850 shares are currently held short.

However MarineMax's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of MarineMax shares, or, against the total number of tradable MarineMax shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case MarineMax's short interest could be expressed as 0.1% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 MarineMax shares in existence, roughly 100 shares are currently held short) or 0.1447% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable MarineMax shares, roughly 145 shares are currently held short).

Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against MarineMax.

MarineMax share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, MarineMax's shares have ranged in value from as little as $7.245 up to $49.67. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while MarineMax's is 1.7609. This would suggest that MarineMax's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
