There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting TFS Financial Corporation shares can be evaluated.

TFS Financial Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

However TFS Financial Corporation's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of TFS Financial Corporation shares, or, against the total number of tradable TFS Financial Corporation shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case TFS Financial Corporation's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 TFS Financial Corporation shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.0192% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable TFS Financial Corporation 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 TFS Financial Corporation.
