There are currently 17.6 million Carvana shares held short by investors – that's known as Carvana's "short interest". This figure is 7.8% down from 19.1 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Carvana shares can be evaluated.
Carvana's "short interest ratio" (SIR)
Carvana's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Carvana shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Carvana shares traded daily (recently around 1.6 million). Carvana's SIR currently stands at 10.77. In other words for every 100,000 Carvana shares traded daily on the market, roughly 10770 shares are currently held short.
However Carvana's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Carvana shares, or, against the total number of tradable Carvana shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Carvana's short interest could be expressed as 0.1% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Carvana shares in existence, roughly 100 shares are currently held short) or 0.3274% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Carvana shares, roughly 327 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 Carvana.

Carvana share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Carvana's shares have ranged in value from as little as $22.16 up to $302.46. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Carvana's is 2.5098. This would suggest that Carvana's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
