Why Short Interest Matters
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. Short selling is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

爲什麼空頭持倉很重要？
空頭持倉是指已經賣出但尚未償還或關閉的股票數量。空頭賣空是指交易者賣出一家公司的股票，但他們並未擁有這些股票，希望股票價格會下跌。如果股票價格下跌，交易者通過空頭賣空可以賺錢，如果股票價格上漲，則會虧本。
跟蹤空頭持倉很重要，因爲它可以作爲市場對特定股票情緒的指標。空頭持倉增加可能表明投資者變得更看淡，而空頭持倉減少可能表明他們變得更看好。
