Short interest is the total of all shares sold short and not covered as
of a specific date. In the old days, this was considered a good way to judge how bearish or bullish a stock looked. A high short-interest
number is bullish and low short interest is bearish. This is not as
useful as it once was because funds use short selling as an arbitrage
technique. Short interest is also altered in conjunction with end-ofyear
tax strategies. You need to understand short interest and
put/call ratios because a rally may take place. In this case, lots of
bears are not good for your shorting strategy. The market always
seems to swing to extremes and move away from those points in the
opposite direction.
