Shorting Nxt-ID shares

There are currently 549,835 Nxt-ID shares held short by investors – that's known as Nxt-ID's "short interest". This figure is 40.6% down from 925,857 last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Nxt-ID shares can be evaluated.

Nxt-ID's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Nxt-ID's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Nxt-ID shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Nxt-ID shares traded daily (recently around 5.5 million). Nxt-ID's SIR currently stands at 0.1. In other words for every 100,000 Nxt-ID shares traded daily on the market, roughly 100 shares are currently held short.

However Nxt-ID's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Nxt-ID shares, or, against the total number of tradable Nxt-ID shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Nxt-ID's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Nxt-ID shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0094% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Nxt-ID shares, roughly 9 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 Nxt-ID.
