Do you know where to find the short percentage of european stocks?
It does not seem to appear on Yahoo, at least not for most of them.
I checked Telefonica (Madrid), Barclays (London), Allianz (Xetra) and Airbus (Paris). The only one that had some short numbers filled in was Barclays, but it did not show the perentage of short.
Also, do you know if the percentage of short is based on average daily volume traded, free float or total number of shares? Or something else?
Edit:
From a search based on Telefonica (TEF), I found this website:
Which provides its shorted shares on the NYSE, which is not its primary listing.
Nonetheless, using TEF as an example and assming that the NYSE shares are all the shorted shares (including those on the BME), it indicates that the number of shares short is 5 million shares. The company has around 5 billion shares in issue, so compared to the total number of shares it is 0.1%. Compared to the average volume of around 13 million shares it is around 38% and compared to the free float I don’t now as I did not find the free float online.
It always should be available at the exchange where the equity is traded, so for EU I finally found this:
LINKS TO NATIONAL WEBSITES WHERE NET SHORT POSITIONS IN SHARES
ARE DISCLOSED
https://www.esma.europa.eu/system/files_force/library/ssr_websites_ss_positions.pdf?download=1’
For example short interest data for the Netherlands:
https://www.afm.nl/en/professionals/registers/meldingenregisters/netto-shortposities-actueel
This actually seems like the data that we would be looking for.
Also just found out koyfin has more graphing functions related to short interest.:
Found that you can use scatter plots in koyfin to also plot short interest as % of outstanding shares (in this case Russell 2000)
But this is exclusive to us indices and etfs.
For individual stocks it also seems plotting short interest is only possible for US stocks:
You can add it to EU stocks but it doesn’t work.
