There are currently 196,732 Superior Group of Companies shares held short by investors – that's known as Superior Group of Companies's "short interest". This figure is 43.8% up from 136,786 last month.

However Superior Group of Companies's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Superior Group of Companies shares, or, against the total number of tradable Superior Group of Companies shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Superior Group of Companies's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Superior Group of Companies shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0239% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Superior Group of Companies shares, roughly 24 shares are currently held short).
