Understanding ASX Short Selling
What is Short Selling?
Short selling is when investors borrow shares and sell them, hoping to buy them back at a lower price. High short interest can indicate bearish sentiment, but also potential for short squeezes when prices rise unexpectedly.
Why Track Short Interest?
Monitoring short interest helps identify heavily shorted stocks that may be undervalued or facing challenges. It also reveals potential short squeeze candidates where rising prices could force shorts to cover, driving prices even higher.
