Shorting Compass shares

There are currently 6.9 million Compass shares held short by investors – that's known as Compass's "short interest". This figure is 48.7% up from 4.6 million last month.

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

Compass's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Compass's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Compass shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Compass shares traded daily (recently around 1.3 million). Compass's SIR currently stands at 5.15. In other words for every 100,000 Compass shares traded daily on the market, roughly 5150 shares are currently held short.

To gain some more context, you can compare Compass's short interest ratio against those of similar companies.

• Realogy (RLGY.US): 9.39
• RE/MAX (RMAX.US): 6.98
• eXp World (EXPI.US): 4.03

However Compass's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Compass shares, or, against the total number of tradable Compass shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Compass's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Compass shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.0297% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Compass shares, roughly 30 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 Compass.

Compass share dividends

We're not expecting Compass to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.

You may also wish to consider:

• RE/MAX (RMAX.US) (2.8% forward annual dividend yield)
• eXp World (EXPI.US) (0.31% forward annual dividend yield)

Have Compass's shares ever split?

Compass's shares were split on a 11:1 basis on 1 July 2014. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 11 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Compass shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 90.9% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Compass shares which in turn could have impacted Compass's share price.
