Shorting TETRA Technologies shares
There are currently 2.0 million TETRA Technologies shares held short by investors – that's known as TETRA Technologies's "short interest". This figure is 49.3% up from 1.3 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting TETRA Technologies shares can be evaluated.
TETRA Technologies's "short interest ratio" (SIR)
TETRA Technologies's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of TETRA Technologies shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of TETRA Technologies shares traded daily (recently around 2.9 million). TETRA Technologies's SIR currently stands at 0.68. In other words for every 100,000 TETRA Technologies shares traded daily on the market, roughly 680 shares are currently held short.
However TETRA Technologies's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of TETRA Technologies shares, or, against the total number of tradable TETRA Technologies shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case TETRA Technologies's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 TETRA Technologies shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.019% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable TETRA Technologies shares, roughly 19 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 TETRA Technologies.

Have TETRA Technologies's shares ever split?
TETRA Technologies's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 22 May 2006. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your TETRA Technologies shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for TETRA Technologies shares which in turn could have impacted TETRA Technologies's share price.
TETRA Technologies share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, TETRA Technologies's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.22 up to $3.08. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while TETRA Technologies's is 3.2267. This would suggest that TETRA Technologies's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
