Short interest
Shares sold short and not yet bought back, as of Oct 15, 2026 (FINRA, reported twice a month)
Shares sold short, last 12 months
Short sale volume counts trades marked short on any given day, including market-maker hedging, so it runs far higher than the share of Ryanair's stock actually held short. No settlement fails above the SEC's reporting threshold in the last 90 days.
