Shorting Metromile shares

There are currently 12.9 million Metromile shares held short by investors – that's known as Metromile's "short interest". This figure is 6.1% up from 12.2 million last month.

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

Metromile's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Metromile's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Metromile shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Metromile shares traded daily (recently around 2.1 million). Metromile's SIR currently stands at 6.31. In other words for every 100,000 Metromile shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6310 shares are currently held short.

To gain some more context, you can compare Metromile's short interest ratio against those of similar companies.

• American Resources Corporation (AREC.US): 0.32
• NACCO Industries (NC.US): 0.41
• Arch Resources (ARCH.US): 7.84

However Metromile's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Metromile shares, or, against the total number of tradable Metromile shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Metromile's short interest could be expressed as 0.1% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Metromile shares in existence, roughly 100 shares are currently held short) or 0.2038% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Metromile shares, roughly 204 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 Metromile.
