Short selling IHRT is an investing strategy that aims to generate trading profit from iHeartMedia as its price is falling. IHRT shares are trading down $0.04 today. To short a stock, an investor borrows shares, sells them and buys the shares back on the public market later to return it to the lender. Short sellers are betting that a stock will decline in price.

This forces short sellers to cover their short interest positions by buying actual shares of IHRT, which in turn drives the price of the stock up even further.
