Shorting Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares

There are currently 15.5 million Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares held short by investors – that's known as Raytheon Technologies Corporation's "short interest". This figure is 12.2% up from 13.8 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares can be evaluated.

Raytheon Technologies Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Raytheon Technologies Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares traded daily (recently around 7.6 million). Raytheon Technologies Corporation's SIR currently stands at 2.03. In other words for every 100,000 Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares traded daily on the market, roughly 2030 shares are currently held short.

However Raytheon Technologies Corporation's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares, or, against the total number of tradable Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Raytheon Technologies Corporation's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0109% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Raytheon Technologies Corporation shares, roughly 11 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 Raytheon Technologies Corporation.
