NEUTRAL IMPACT
Constellation Brands has experienced an increase in short interest, which could indicate bearish sentiment among investors but remains below the peer average.
While the increase in short interest for Constellation Brands suggests that some investors are expecting the stock price to decline, the fact that it is still below the peer group average and the article suggests this does not necessarily predict a near-term price drop, leads to a neutral score. The relevance is high as the article is directly about STZ's short interest, but the importance is moderate because short interest is just one of many factors that can affect stock price. The confidence level is set at 70 due to the uncertainty of market reactions to changes in short interest.
