Shorting Thor Industries shares

There are currently 4.7 million Thor Industries shares held short by investors – that's known as Thor Industries's "short interest". This figure is 35.8% down from 7.3 million last month.

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

Thor Industries's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Thor Industries's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Thor Industries shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Thor Industries shares traded daily (recently around 874800.74211503). Thor Industries's SIR currently stands at 5.39. In other words for every 100,000 Thor Industries shares traded daily on the market, roughly 5390 shares are currently held short.

However Thor Industries's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Thor Industries shares, or, against the total number of tradable Thor Industries shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Thor Industries's short interest could be expressed as 0.09% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Thor Industries shares in existence, roughly 90 shares are currently held short) or 0.1011% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Thor Industries shares, roughly 101 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 Thor Industries.
