Shorting First Bank shares

There are currently 173,449 First Bank shares held short by investors – that's known as First Bank's "short interest". This figure is 3.8% up from 167,147 last month.

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

First Bank's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

First Bank's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of First Bank shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of First Bank shares traded daily (recently around 45051.688311688). First Bank's SIR currently stands at 3.85. In other words for every 100,000 First Bank shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3850 shares are currently held short.

However First Bank's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of First Bank shares, or, against the total number of tradable First Bank shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case First Bank's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 First Bank shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0098% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable First Bank 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 First Bank.
