Shorting Regulus Therapeutics shares

There are currently 932,304 Regulus Therapeutics shares held short by investors – that's known as Regulus Therapeutics's "short interest". This figure is 12.9% up from 826,083 last month.

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

Regulus Therapeutics's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Regulus Therapeutics's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Regulus Therapeutics shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Regulus Therapeutics shares traded daily (recently around 515085.08287293). Regulus Therapeutics's SIR currently stands at 1.81. In other words for every 100,000 Regulus Therapeutics shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1810 shares are currently held short.

However Regulus Therapeutics's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Regulus Therapeutics shares, or, against the total number of tradable Regulus Therapeutics shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Regulus Therapeutics's short interest could be expressed as 0.03% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Regulus Therapeutics shares in existence, roughly 30 shares are currently held short) or 0.028% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Regulus Therapeutics shares, roughly 28 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 Regulus Therapeutics.

Have Regulus Therapeutics's shares ever split?

Regulus Therapeutics's shares were split on a 1:12 basis on 4 October 2018. So if you had owned 12 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Regulus Therapeutics shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1100% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Regulus Therapeutics shares which in turn could have impacted Regulus Therapeutics's share price.

Regulus Therapeutics share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Regulus Therapeutics's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.42 up to $1.74. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Regulus Therapeutics's is 1.9791. This would suggest that Regulus Therapeutics's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
