TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 8.2 million Aramark shares held short by investors – that's known as Aramark's "short interest". This figure is 1.1% up from 8.1 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Aramark shares can be evaluated.
Aramark's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Aramark shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Aramark shares traded daily (recently around 1.6 million). Aramark's SIR currently stands at 5.1. In other words for every 100,000 Aramark shares traded daily on the market, roughly 5100 shares are currently held short.
However Aramark's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Aramark shares, or, against the total number of tradable Aramark shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Aramark's short interest could be expressed as 0.03% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Aramark shares in existence, roughly 30 shares are currently held short) or 0.0322% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Aramark shares, roughly 32 shares are currently held short).
A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Aramark.
