Shorting Domtar Corporation shares

There are currently 2.2 million Domtar Corporation shares held short by investors – that's known as Domtar Corporation's "short interest". This figure is 41.4% down from 3.7 million last month.

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

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

However Domtar Corporation's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Domtar Corporation shares, or, against the total number of tradable Domtar Corporation shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Domtar Corporation's short interest could be expressed as 0.04% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Domtar Corporation shares in existence, roughly 40 shares are currently held short) or 0.0436% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Domtar Corporation shares, roughly 44 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 Domtar Corporation.
