How to short and sell HIMS shares

  1. Create a CFD or spread betting account.
  2. Search for the stock code. E.g. "HIMS.US"
  3. Choose your position size.
  4. Select "sell" rather than "buy".
  5. Confirm your position and keep tabs on it. You may wish to set limits on your position.

There are currently 2.6 million HIMS shares held short by investors – that's known as HIMS's "short interest". This figure is up from 0 last month.

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

HIMS's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

HIMS's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of HIMS shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of HIMS shares traded daily (recently around 2.9 million). HIMS's SIR currently stands at 0.91. In other words for every 100,000 HIMS shares traded daily on the market, roughly 910 shares are currently held short.

However HIMS's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of HIMS shares, or, against the total number of tradable HIMS shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case HIMS's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 HIMS shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable HIMS shares, roughly 0 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 HIMS.
