TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 12.6 million Live Nation Entertainment shares held short by investors – that's known as the "short interest". This figure is 6.1% up from 11.8 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Live Nation Entertainment shares can be evaluated.
Live Nation Entertainment's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Live Nation Entertainment shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Live Nation Entertainment shares traded daily (recently around 2.1 million). Live Nation Entertainment's SIR currently stands at 6.1. In other words for every 100,000 Live Nation Entertainment shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6100 shares are currently held short.
However Live Nation Entertainment's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Live Nation Entertainment shares, or, against the total number of tradable Live Nation Entertainment shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Live Nation Entertainment's short interest could be expressed as 0.06% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Live Nation Entertainment shares in existence, roughly 60 shares are currently held short) or 0.0864% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Live Nation Entertainment shares, roughly 86 shares are currently held short).
A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Live Nation Entertainment.
