Shorting PEDEVCO shares

There are currently 222,461 PEDEVCO shares held short by investors – that's known as PEDEVCO's "short interest". This figure is 23.3% down from 290,080 last month.

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

PEDEVCO's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

PEDEVCO's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of PEDEVCO shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of PEDEVCO shares traded daily (recently around 967221.73913043). PEDEVCO's SIR currently stands at 0.23. In other words for every 100,000 PEDEVCO shares traded daily on the market, roughly 230 shares are currently held short.

However PEDEVCO's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of PEDEVCO shares, or, against the total number of tradable PEDEVCO shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case PEDEVCO's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 PEDEVCO shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.0248% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable PEDEVCO shares, roughly 25 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 PEDEVCO.

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

PEDEVCO share price volatility

This would suggest that PEDEVCO'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).
