Shorting CBIZ shares

There are currently 665,261 CBIZ shares held short by investors – that's known as CBIZ's "short interest". This figure is 18.4% down from 815,053 last month.

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

CBIZ's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

CBIZ's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of CBIZ shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of CBIZ shares traded daily (recently around 220285.09933775). CBIZ's SIR currently stands at 3.02. In other words for every 100,000 CBIZ shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3020 shares are currently held short.

However CBIZ's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of CBIZ shares, or, against the total number of tradable CBIZ shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case CBIZ's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 CBIZ shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0143% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable CBIZ shares, roughly 14 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 CBIZ.

Have CBIZ's shares ever split?

CBIZ's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 1 July 1996. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your CBIZ shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for CBIZ shares which in turn could have impacted CBIZ's share price.

CBIZ share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, CBIZ's shares have ranged in value from as little as $16.85 up to $31.13. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while CBIZ's is 0.6131. This would suggest that CBIZ's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
