When short interest falls, shares are being bought back. So it is worth watching the trend, not just today's number.

For the industrials sector, anything above 200% counts as elevated — that raises the financial risk, especially if interest rates rise or earnings fall. Industrial companies often sit at 100-200% because of heavy production assets and long order books. Note: D/E levels are highly sector-specific — a bank at 300% debt is normal, a tech stock at 300% is extremely leveraged. Always compare with similar companies in the same sector. Can GE Aerospace service its debt? Can service its debt without problems — the interest coverage ratio (how many times earnings can cover interest payments) is 14.0x, and net debt equals 0.9 years of earnings (EBITDA).
