Shorting RigNet shares
There are currently 248,286 RigNet shares held short by investors – that's known as RigNet's "short interest". This figure is 29.3% up from 192,012 last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting RigNet shares can be evaluated.
RigNet's "short interest ratio" (SIR)
RigNet's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of RigNet shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of RigNet shares traded daily (recently around 225714.54545455). RigNet's SIR currently stands at 1.1. In other words for every 100,000 RigNet shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1100 shares are currently held short.
However RigNet's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of RigNet shares, or, against the total number of tradable RigNet shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case RigNet's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 RigNet shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0164% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable RigNet shares, roughly 16 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 RigNet.
