As of 28 November 2025, 10,261 Ashtead Group Plc Unsponsored shares were held short — the total across every reporting firm, not one fund's position. That is 5,844 shares fewer than the previous report, a 36.29% decrease. At the average daily volume of 21,698 shares, that position represents 1.00 days of trading — what the filing calls days to cover.
This is the most recent figure that exists, and it is 308 days old. FINRA collects short interest twice a month, on a settlement date, and publishes it about eight business days later. So nobody has a live short-interest number for ASHTY — not us, and not anyone quoting one. We print the settlement date on the figure so you always know which day you are looking at.
Across the 7 reports we hold, the position has risen from 2,058 shares on 29 August 2025 to 10,261 today, a change of 398.6%. The highest reading in that window was 21,131 shares on 15 October 2025.

- What is ASHTY's short interest?
- 10,261 shares, as of the 28 November 2025 settlement date. That is the figure FINRA published, unadjusted.
- What percentage of the float is short?
- We do not publish that, because FINRA does not publish float. The regulator reports the number of shares held short; turning it into a percentage needs a share count from somewhere else, and different sources disagree about what counts as float. We would rather give you the number that was actually filed than a percentage built on an assumption.
- How current is this?
- It is 308 days old, and that is as fresh as short interest gets. FINRA measures it twice a month and publishes it seven business days after the settlement date. Any site showing you a "live" short interest figure is showing you something else.
- What does days to cover mean?
- It is the short position divided by average daily trading volume — here, 1.00. It describes how many days of ordinary trading the position is equivalent to. It is arithmetic from the filing, not a prediction about what will happen.
- Where does this come from?
- FINRA's consolidated short interest file, which is public. We read it directly and store it unchanged, except that we blank the days-to-cover placeholder FINRA writes when a stock has almost no volume.
