Shorting McEwen Mining shares

There are currently 57.2 million McEwen Mining shares held short by investors – that's known as McEwen Mining's "short interest". This figure is 1.7% down from 58.2 million last month.

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

McEwen Mining's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

McEwen Mining's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of McEwen Mining shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of McEwen Mining shares traded daily (recently around 2.6 million). McEwen Mining's SIR currently stands at 21.77. In other words for every 100,000 McEwen Mining shares traded daily on the market, roughly 21770 shares are currently held short.

However McEwen Mining's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of McEwen Mining shares, or, against the total number of tradable McEwen Mining shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case McEwen Mining's short interest could be expressed as 0.14% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 McEwen Mining shares in existence, roughly 140 shares are currently held short) or 0.1751% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable McEwen Mining shares, roughly 175 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 McEwen Mining.

Have McEwen Mining's shares ever split?

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your McEwen Mining shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for McEwen Mining shares which in turn could have impacted McEwen Mining's share price.

McEwen Mining share price volatility

This would suggest that McEwen Mining's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
