Shorting Alamos Gold shares

There are currently 4.5 million Alamos Gold shares held short by investors – that's known as Alamos Gold's "short interest". This figure is 23.8% down from 6.0 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Alamos Gold shares can be evaluated.

Alamos Gold's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Alamos Gold's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Alamos Gold shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Alamos Gold shares traded daily (recently around 2.5 million). Alamos Gold's SIR currently stands at 1.81. In other words for every 100,000 Alamos Gold shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1810 shares are currently held short.

However Alamos Gold's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Alamos Gold shares, or, against the total number of tradable Alamos Gold shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Alamos Gold's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Alamos Gold shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0116% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Alamos Gold shares, roughly 12 shares are currently held short).

Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Alamos Gold.

Alamos Gold share dividends

Recently Alamos Gold has paid out, on average, around 17.92% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.23% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Alamos Gold shareholders could enjoy a 1.23% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Alamos Gold's case, that would currently equate to about $0.085 per share.

While Alamos Gold's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Alamos Gold is investing more in its future growth.

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Alamos Gold's is 1.0861. This would suggest that Alamos Gold's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
