<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> 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.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VERU#NASDAQ">VERU</a>), a late clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative medicines for preserving muscle for high quality weight loss, oncology, and viral induced acute respiratory distress syndrome, today announced data from a meta-analysis presentation at ObesityWeek, which took place November 5, 2024, in San Antonio, Texas.
Highlights from the presentation: The objective of the meta-analysis was to determine the effects of enobosarm on body composition in older patients that had obesity who were enrolled in 4 previously conducted randomized clinical trials of enobosarm that measured body composition including Phase 2 older males and postmenopausal women, Phase 2 advanced cancer patients with muscle wasting, and two Phase 3 advanced lung cancer patients with cancer wasting.
Meta-analysis was conducted in older (≥60 years old) subjects with obesity (BMI ≥30), treated with enobosarm 3mg per day versus placebo, and who had a Day 84 (n= 60) and Day 147 (n=45) DEXA scans to assess body composition.
Results of DEXA scan assessments of body composition in older subjects with obesity: At Day 84, enobosarm 3mg treatment compared to placebo resulted in an absolute increase in lean mass (0.05 kg enobosarm vs -1.54 kg placebo) and absolute decrease in fat mass (-1.48 kg enobosarm vs placebo -0.35 kg).
At Day 147, enobosarm 3mg treatment compared to placebo resulted an absolute increase in lean mass (-0.79 kg enobosarm vs -1.77 kg placebo) and absolute decrease in fat mass (-2.05 kg enobosarm vs -0.05 kg placebo).
At Day 147, enobosarm 3mg treated subjects compared to placebo had greater total weight loss by DEXA scan (-2.93 kg for enobosarm and -2.11 kg for placebo).
Enobosarm was generally well-tolerated with no increase in gastrointestinal side effects.
