Short interest ratio

One key metric used in finance is the short interest ratio, which measures the number of days it would take to repurchase all shares that have been sold short. For instance, a ratio of 2 suggests it would take 2 trading days to buy back all the shorted shares, based on current trading volume. This ratio is an important tool for investors to monitor market sentiment and potential shifts in stock prices.
