Shorting Wells Fargo-and-Company shares

There are currently 45.9 million Wells Fargo-and-Company shares held short by investors – that's known as Wells Fargo-and-Company's "short interest". This figure is 1.1% down from 46.4 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Wells Fargo-and-Company shares can be evaluated.

Wells Fargo-and-Company's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Wells Fargo-and-Company's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Wells Fargo-and-Company shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Wells Fargo-and-Company shares traded daily (recently around 35.0 million). Wells Fargo-and-Company's SIR currently stands at 1.31. In other words for every 100,000 Wells Fargo-and-Company shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1310 shares are currently held short.

However Wells Fargo-and-Company's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Wells Fargo-and-Company shares, or, against the total number of tradable Wells Fargo-and-Company shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Wells Fargo-and-Company's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Wells Fargo-and-Company shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0111% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Wells Fargo-and-Company shares, roughly 11 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 Wells Fargo-and-Company.
