- Our two reads: The price read (Quiet Money) is resilient for 5 sessions. The filings read is tilted out, on 2 of 4 inputs. They lean opposite ways, so neither tells the whole story.
- US House: 0 purchases and 1 sale reported, amounts in the bands the law requires.
- Delay: each filing below shows how many days passed between the trade and its publication. None of this is real-time.

As of 30 September 2026, 20,612,281 VISA Inc. shares were held short — the total across every reporting firm, not one fund's position. That is 2,080,046 shares more than the previous report, a 11.22% increase. At the average daily volume of 7,343,515 shares, that position represents 2.81 days of trading — what the filing calls days to cover.
This is the most recent figure that exists, and it is 22 days old. FINRA collects short interest twice a month, on a settlement date, and publishes it seven business days later. So nobody has a live short-interest number for V — 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 12 reports we hold, the position has fallen from 23,418,610 shares on 15 April 2026 to 20,612,281 today, a change of 12.0%. The highest reading in that window was 25,807,210 shares on 15 May 2026.

- What is V's short interest?
- 20,612,281 shares, as of the 30 September 2026 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- We do not publish that, because FINRA does not publish float.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 22 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, 2.81. 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.
