There are currently 7.3 million Novavax shares held short by investors – that's known as Novavax's "short interest". This figure is 1.3% up from 7.2 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Novavax shares can be evaluated.
Novavax's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Novavax shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Novavax shares traded daily (recently around 5.0 million). Novavax's SIR currently stands at 1.48. In other words for every 100,000 Novavax shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1480 shares are currently held short.
However Novavax's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Novavax shares, or, against the total number of tradable Novavax shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Novavax's short interest could be expressed as 0.12% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Novavax shares in existence, roughly 120 shares are currently held short) or 0.1155% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Novavax shares, roughly 116 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 Novavax.

We're not expecting Novavax to pay a dividend over the next 12 months. However, you can browse other dividend-paying shares in our guide.
Novavax's shares were split on a 1:20 basis on 10 May 2019. So if you had owned 20 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 Novavax shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Novavax shares which in turn could have impacted Novavax's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Novavax's shares have ranged in value from as little as $6.26 up to $189.4. 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 Novavax's is 1.9968. This would suggest that Novavax's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
