However Royal Caribbean Group's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Royal Caribbean Group shares, or, against the total number of tradable Royal Caribbean Group shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Royal Caribbean Group's short interest could be expressed as 0.06% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Royal Caribbean Group shares in existence, roughly 60 shares are currently held short) or 0.0635% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Royal Caribbean Group shares, roughly 64 shares are currently held short).
