Shorting Valaris shares

There are currently 566,627 Valaris shares held short by investors – that's known as Valaris's "short interest". This figure is 117.5% up from 260,494 last month.

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

Valaris's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Valaris's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Valaris shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Valaris shares traded daily (recently around 488471.55172414). Valaris's SIR currently stands at 1.16. In other words for every 100,000 Valaris shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1160 shares are currently held short.

However Valaris's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Valaris shares, or, against the total number of tradable Valaris shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Valaris's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Valaris shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0032% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Valaris shares, roughly 3 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 Valaris.
