Shorting Viemed Healthcare shares

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

Viemed Healthcare's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

However Viemed Healthcare's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Viemed Healthcare shares, or, against the total number of tradable Viemed Healthcare shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Viemed Healthcare's short interest could be expressed as 0.04% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Viemed Healthcare shares in existence, roughly 40 shares are currently held short) or 0.0407% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Viemed Healthcare shares, roughly 41 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 Viemed Healthcare.
