Shorting Par Pacific shares

There are currently 3.2 million Par Pacific shares held short by investors – that's known as Par Pacific's "short interest". This figure is 27.9% up from 2.5 million last month.

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

Par Pacific's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Par Pacific's SIR currently stands at 3.83. In other words for every 100,000 Par Pacific shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3830 shares are currently held short.

However Par Pacific's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Par Pacific shares, or, against the total number of tradable Par Pacific shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Par Pacific's short interest could be expressed as 0.05% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Par Pacific shares in existence, roughly 50 shares are currently held short) or 0.0838% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Par Pacific shares, roughly 84 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 Par Pacific.
