Shorting Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares

There are currently 4.2 million Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares held short by investors – that's known as Marinus Pharmaceuticals's "short interest". This figure is 2% down from 4.3 million last month.

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

Marinus Pharmaceuticals's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Marinus Pharmaceuticals's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares traded daily (recently around 334098.08306709). Marinus Pharmaceuticals's SIR currently stands at 12.52. In other words for every 100,000 Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares traded daily on the market, roughly 12520 shares are currently held short.

However Marinus Pharmaceuticals's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares, or, against the total number of tradable Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Marinus Pharmaceuticals's short interest could be expressed as 0.12% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares in existence, roughly 120 shares are currently held short) or 0.1177% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares, roughly 118 shares are currently held short).

A SIR above 10% would generally be considered pretty high, pointing to a potentially pessimistic outlook for the share price and a discouraging interest in betting against Marinus Pharmaceuticals.

Have Marinus Pharmaceuticals's shares ever split?

Marinus Pharmaceuticals's shares were split on a 1:4 basis on 23 September 2020. So if you had owned 4 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 300% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Marinus Pharmaceuticals shares which in turn could have impacted Marinus Pharmaceuticals's share price.

Marinus Pharmaceuticals share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Marinus Pharmaceuticals's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.16 up to $17.14. 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 Marinus Pharmaceuticals's is 1.5662. This would suggest that Marinus Pharmaceuticals's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
