In this case Universal Stainless-and-Alloy Products's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Universal Stainless-and-Alloy Products shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.0013% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Universal Stainless-and-Alloy Products shares, roughly 1 shares are currently held short).
