Get bi-monthly short interest history for a stock from FINRA. Shows the reported short position, change from the previous settlement, average daily volume, and days to cover per settlement date. Share counts are restated onto today's split basis so the series stays continuous across stock splits; days to cover is as reported (FINRA caps it at 999.99). High days-to-cover (>5) suggests a potential short squeeze — for short interest as a % of shares outstanding and an actual squeeze-candidate ranking use GetShortSqueezeScores; for the market-wide latest settlement use GetShortInterestSnapshot. FINRA publishes each file weeks after it measures the position, so the answer may also carry an estimate of the settlement that has not been reported yet — it appears BELOW the table, labelled as an estimate, and is a model prediction rather than reported data; never present it as a FINRA figure.
