AMETEK's short interest has increased, but remains below the peer group average. This could indicate bearish sentiment but isn't a definitive predictor of stock performance.
The increase in short interest suggests that some investors are bearish on AMETEK. However, since the short interest is still lower than the peer average, it may not have a significant impact on the stock price in the short term. The article does not provide any specific negative information about the company that would justify a negative score.
