Shorting Weyco Group shares

There are currently 40,732 Weyco Group shares held short by investors – that's known as Weyco Group's "short interest". This figure is 6.4% down from 43,519 last month.

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

Weyco Group's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Weyco Group's SIR currently stands at 3.64. In other words for every 100,000 Weyco Group shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3640 shares are currently held short.

However Weyco Group's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Weyco Group shares, or, against the total number of tradable Weyco Group shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Weyco Group's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Weyco Group shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.0068% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Weyco Group shares, roughly 7 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 Weyco Group.
