There are currently 3.0 million Alpha Pro Tech shares held short by investors – that's known as Alpha Pro Tech's "short interest". This figure is 1.3% up from 2.9 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Alpha Pro Tech shares can be evaluated.
Alpha Pro Tech's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Alpha Pro Tech shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Alpha Pro Tech shares traded daily (recently around 1.4 million). Alpha Pro Tech's SIR currently stands at 2.19. In other words for every 100,000 Alpha Pro Tech shares traded daily on the market, roughly 2190 shares are currently held short.
However Alpha Pro Tech's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Alpha Pro Tech shares, or, against the total number of tradable Alpha Pro Tech shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Alpha Pro Tech's short interest could be expressed as 0.22% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Alpha Pro Tech shares in existence, roughly 220 shares are currently held short) or 0.2416% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Alpha Pro Tech shares, roughly 242 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 Alpha Pro Tech.
