Shorting Chase Corporation shares

There are currently 119,640 Chase Corporation shares held short by investors – that's known as Chase Corporation's "short interest". This figure is 2.8% up from 116,426 last month.

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

Chase Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Chase Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Chase Corporation shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Chase Corporation shares traded daily (recently around 19020.66772655). Chase Corporation's SIR currently stands at 6.29. In other words for every 100,000 Chase Corporation shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6290 shares are currently held short.

However Chase Corporation's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Chase Corporation shares, or, against the total number of tradable Chase Corporation shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Chase Corporation's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Chase Corporation shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0162% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Chase Corporation shares, roughly 16 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 Chase Corporation.

Chase Corporation share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 19.89% of net profits

In Chase Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $0.8 per share.

While Chase Corporation's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Chase Corporation is investing more in its future growth.

Chase Corporation's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 27 June 2007. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares.
