There are currently 33.6 million Vaxart shares held short by investors – that's known as Vaxart's "short interest". This figure is 19.8% up from 28.0 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Vaxart shares can be evaluated.
Vaxart's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Vaxart shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Vaxart shares traded daily (recently around 8.7 million). Vaxart's SIR currently stands at 3.84. In other words for every 100,000 Vaxart shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3840 shares are currently held short.
However Vaxart's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Vaxart shares, or, against the total number of tradable Vaxart shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Vaxart's short interest could be expressed as 0.31% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Vaxart shares in existence, roughly 310 shares are currently held short) or 0.4016% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Vaxart shares, roughly 402 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 Vaxart.

We're not expecting Vaxart to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Vaxart's shares were split on a 1:11 basis on 14 February 2018. So if you had owned 11 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 Vaxart shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1000% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Vaxart shares which in turn could have impacted Vaxart's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Vaxart's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.4488 up to $17.15. 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 Vaxart's is 0.4924. This would suggest that Vaxart's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
