TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 8.9 million Luminar Technologies shares held short by investors – that's known as Luminar Technologies's "short interest". This figure is 22.8% up from 7.2 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Luminar Technologies shares can be evaluated.
Luminar Technologies's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Luminar Technologies shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Luminar Technologies shares traded daily (recently around 5.4 million). Luminar Technologies's SIR currently stands at 1.64. In other words for every 100,000 Luminar Technologies shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1640 shares are currently held short.
To gain some more context, you can compare Luminar Technologies's short interest ratio against those of similar companies.
However Luminar Technologies's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Luminar Technologies shares, or, against the total number of tradable Luminar Technologies shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Luminar Technologies's short interest could be expressed as 0.03% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Luminar Technologies shares in existence, roughly 30 shares are currently held short) or 0% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Luminar Technologies shares, roughly 0 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 Luminar Technologies.
