Shorting Calix shares

There are currently 2.7 million Calix shares held short by investors – that's known as Calix's "short interest". This figure is 22.4% down from 3.5 million last month.

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

Calix's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Calix's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Calix shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Calix shares traded daily (recently around 916204). Calix's SIR currently stands at 3. In other words for every 100,000 Calix shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3000 shares are currently held short.

However Calix's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Calix shares, or, against the total number of tradable Calix shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Calix's short interest could be expressed as 0.04% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Calix shares in existence, roughly 40 shares are currently held short) or 0.0508% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Calix shares, roughly 51 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 Calix.
