Shorting CPI Aerostructures shares

There are currently 54,761 CPI Aerostructures shares held short by investors – that's known as CPI Aerostructures's "short interest". This figure is 592.5% up from 7,908 last month.

CPI Aerostructures's SIR currently stands at 0.03. In other words for every 100,000 CPI Aerostructures shares traded daily on the market, roughly 30 shares are currently held short.

However CPI Aerostructures's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of CPI Aerostructures shares, or, against the total number of tradable CPI Aerostructures shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case CPI Aerostructures's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 CPI Aerostructures shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.005% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable CPI Aerostructures shares, roughly 5 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 CPI Aerostructures.
