Shorting ConnectOne Bancorp shares

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

ConnectOne Bancorp's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

ConnectOne Bancorp's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of ConnectOne Bancorp shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of ConnectOne Bancorp shares traded daily (recently around 147997.18875502). ConnectOne Bancorp's SIR currently stands at 2.49. In other words for every 100,000 ConnectOne Bancorp shares traded daily on the market, roughly 2490 shares are currently held short.

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