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. **See Also:** List of the most shorted stocks ### Kenvue Inc Short Interest Graph (3 Months) ![short_fig](https://imageproxy.pbkrs.com/https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2026/1767722443_0.png?x-oss-process=image/auto-orient,1/interlace,1/resize,w_1440,h_1440/quality,q_95/format,jpg) As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Kenvue Inc has grown since its last report.
