Shorting CBRE Group shares

There are currently 6.2 million CBRE Group shares held short by investors – that's known as CBRE Group's "short interest". This figure is 0.5% down from 6.2 million last month.

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

CBRE Group's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

CBRE Group's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of CBRE Group shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of CBRE Group shares traded daily (recently around 1.6 million). CBRE Group's SIR currently stands at 3.76. In other words for every 100,000 CBRE Group shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3760 shares are currently held short.

However CBRE Group's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of CBRE Group shares, or, against the total number of tradable CBRE Group shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case CBRE Group's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 CBRE Group shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.0221% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable CBRE Group shares, roughly 22 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 CBRE Group.
