TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 12.2 million Rocket Companies shares held short by investors – that's known as Rocket Companies's "short interest". This figure is 10% up from 11.1 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Rocket Companies shares can be evaluated.
Rocket Companies's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Rocket Companies shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Rocket Companies shares traded daily (recently around 4.0 million). Rocket Companies's SIR currently stands at 3.09. In other words for every 100,000 Rocket Companies shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3090 shares are currently held short.
However Rocket Companies's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Rocket Companies shares, or, against the total number of tradable Rocket Companies shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Rocket Companies's short interest could be expressed as 0.09% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Rocket Companies shares in existence, roughly 90 shares are currently held short) or 0.0888% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Rocket Companies shares, roughly 89 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 Rocket Companies.
