MED Short Interest Chart

The below chart depicts the MED short interest history in graphical format, with the X-axis representing the historical MED short interest date and the Y-axis showing the total amount of shares short as of each measurement date (MED short interest measured twice monthly). The MED short interest chart is interactive, meaning you can hover over any given data point to see the data values as well as days to cover information. Also refer to the MED short interest data table below the chart itself. Open the MED page at The Online Investor »

MED Short Interest Data Table

This MED short interest data is presented in table format, where each row represents one MED short interest measurement on the indicated date (listed in the first column). The next column indicates the "days to cover" value which compares MED's recent average trading volume against the total number of MED shares sold short in the aggregate — in other words, take the "MED shares short" column, and divide by the average trading volume, and you get the MED days-to-cover reading. Finally, in the last column we show the change in number of shares of MED that have been sold short, where a positive number means additional MED shares were shorted during the period since the last measurement, while a negative value means that MED shares were covered by short sellers during the period.
