Short sale volume: 42.4% of the volume reported to FINRA over the last 20 trading days was marked short, below its 1-year average of 49.7%. FINRA daily files, to Oct 2, 2026.
Fails to deliver: 70K shares (about $20.5M) were not delivered on time for settlement on Sep 14, 2026. SEC fails-to-deliver data.
Short sale volume is not short interest. It counts trades marked short, including market makers selling short to fill buy orders, so it is a share of daily trading, not a count of bets against the stock. Fails to deliver have many causes, including processing delays, and are often resolved within days.
