Shorting Macys shares
There are currently 41.7 million Macys shares held short by investors – that's known as Macys's "short interest". This figure is 4.2% down from 43.5 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Macys shares can be evaluated.
Macys's "short interest ratio" (SIR)
Macys's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Macys shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Macys shares traded daily (recently around 18.5 million). Macys's SIR currently stands at 2.25. In other words for every 100,000 Macys shares traded daily on the market, roughly 2250 shares are currently held short.
However Macys's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Macys shares, or, against the total number of tradable Macys shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Macys's short interest could be expressed as 0.13% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Macys shares in existence, roughly 130 shares are currently held short) or 0.1781% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Macys shares, roughly 178 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 Macys.
