They've changed the way the calculate SI now. Before; SI = [Number of Shares Short] / [Float] Now; SI = [Number of Share Short] + [Float] / [Float] Ask yours

They've changed the way the calculate SI now. Before; SI = [Number of Shares Short] / [Float] Now; SI = [Number of Share Short] + [Float] / [Float] Ask yourself, why...

> They've changed the way the calculate SI now This is nonsense. Who is “they”? FINRA and the SEC require brokers to report short interest data twice a month [1]. These are share aggregates. FINRA then provides those data for U.S.-listed companies to the exchanges, who publish it. None of those exchanges have changed their publishing methodologies in years.

  "They" are the data aggregation websites that post shares SI. FINRA and the SEC have nothing to do with the actual calculation of SI that various websites report.

S3 SI% of Float = Shares Sold Short/(Float + Shares Sold Short)

> Before; SI = [Number of Shares Short] / [Float] > Now; SI = [Number of Share Short] + [Float] / [Float] So you're saying that SI is always reported as higher than 100% now? Since that's not the cause, are you saying there's negative number of short shares now? Maybe think for 2 seconds about your 2nd formula?

  Sorry; Now; SI = [Number of Shares Short] / [Float] + [Number of Shares Short]
