What does the trend tell you?
Short interest is falling. It is down 0.7 percentage points over the last month and now stands at 8.7%. The peak was 12.9% on May 30, 2026, so it is now 4.3 percentage points lower. This is how shorting works: whoever shorts has borrowed the share and sold it, and to close the position again they must buy the share back. Falling short interest therefore means shares are being bought back in GitLab right now.

Many investors watch for exactly this: short interest that has been high and starts falling back. The professionals who bet on a falling price are closing down. That is not in itself a signal about what the price will do — we cannot predict the market, and short interest is only one number among many. But it does say something about what the large players are doing.
The stock has a high share of short selling. Between 5-10% of the freely traded shares are sold short, which suggests some investors are betting on falling prices. Positive surprises can lead to a moderate short squeeze.

What does this mean for you as an investor?
A short interest of 8.7% means that 8.7% of the freely traded shares in GitLab have been borrowed and sold by investors betting on falling prices.

Short interest comes from our data provider EODHD. The figure is reported about twice a month; we check it every trading day.
