MercadoLibre's short interest has increased by 4.31%, now at 1.21% of its float. This is lower than the peer group average of 11.01%. The rise in short interest could indicate bearish sentiment, but it doesn't necessarily mean the stock will fall in the near term.
The increase in short interest suggests that more investors are betting against the stock, which could be seen as a bearish signal. However, the short interest is still relatively low compared to its peers, and this alone does not guarantee a price drop.
