Equity Short Interest Data

FINRA publishes the short interest reports it collects from broker-dealers for all exchange-listed and over-the-counter (OTC) equity securities. Learn more about equities.

FINRA Rule 4560 requires FINRA member firms to report their short positions in all OTC equity securities to FINRA. OTC equity / other OTC short interest is available for view by issue, or by downloadable pipe-delimited text file containing all OTC equity / other OTC securities reported with a short position. Data is available online for one rolling year based on the settlement date provided in the Short Interest Reporting Deadlines, and archived data is available via download.
