With the S&P 500 down more than 13% since its peak in April, one would think that short interest would have surged as investors pile on to the negative sentiment in the markets.Ā A look at recent short interest figures, however, shows that just as there is little conviction in the bull camp, bears areĀ just as apathetic.Ā Since the market peaked back in April, short interest as a percentage of float for the S&P 1500 has barely budged.
