Shorting Ring Energy shares

There are currently 10.2 million Ring Energy shares held short by investors – that's known as Ring Energy's "short interest". This figure is 1.5% up from 10.1 million last month.

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

Ring Energy's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Ring Energy's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Ring Energy shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Ring Energy shares traded daily (recently around 1.5 million). Ring Energy's SIR currently stands at 6.6. In other words for every 100,000 Ring Energy shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6600 shares are currently held short.

However Ring Energy's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Ring Energy shares, or, against the total number of tradable Ring Energy shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Ring Energy's short interest could be expressed as 0.13% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Ring Energy shares in existence, roughly 130 shares are currently held short) or 0.1523% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Ring Energy shares, roughly 152 shares are currently held short).

A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Ring Energy.

However, indirectly, the new 1700% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Ring Energy shares which in turn could have impacted Ring Energy's share price.
