NEW YORK, Oct. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- At the end of the settlement date of October 15, 2026, short interest in 3,885 Nasdaq Global MarketSM securities totaled 18,609,329,855 shares compared with 18,657,486,300 shares in 3,885 Global Market issues reported for the prior settlement date of September 30, 2026. The mid-October short interest represents 3.49 days compared with 3.19 days for the prior reporting period.
