There are currently 20,357 Aviat Networks shares held short by investors – that's known as Aviat Networks's "short interest". This figure is 14.1% down from 23,697 last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Aviat Networks shares can be evaluated.

Aviat Networks's SIR currently stands at 0.15. In other words for every 100,000 Aviat Networks shares traded daily on the market, roughly 150 shares are currently held short.
However Aviat Networks's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Aviat Networks shares, or, against the total number of tradable Aviat Networks shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Aviat Networks's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Aviat Networks shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.0044% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Aviat Networks shares, roughly 4 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 Aviat Networks.
