Shorting Liminal BioSciences shares

There are currently 442,308 Liminal BioSciences shares held short by investors – that's known as Liminal BioSciences's "short interest". This figure is 4.8% up from 421,885 last month.

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

Liminal BioSciences's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Liminal BioSciences's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Liminal BioSciences shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Liminal BioSciences shares traded daily (recently around 2.5 million). Liminal BioSciences's SIR currently stands at 0.18. In other words for every 100,000 Liminal BioSciences shares traded daily on the market, roughly 180 shares are currently held short.

However Liminal BioSciences's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Liminal BioSciences shares, or, against the total number of tradable Liminal BioSciences shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Liminal BioSciences's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Liminal BioSciences shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0543% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Liminal BioSciences shares, roughly 54 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 Liminal BioSciences.
