 I can look at stocks that are sorted by short interest ratio, but how recnet is the short interest information? Is it updated daily? Also, how can I find out how many shares are shorted as a % of float?

Thanks,
Rick

 The criterion is updated every Saturday based on the most recent monthly numbers shorting sent by the exchange. There is no way in TeleChart to uncover the shorts as a % of float.

 Question on the short Interest ratio:

I have all stocks sorted by Latest Short Interest Ratio.

First one is SSFC value: 394
Second is FNFI Value : 367

What does the value represent?

Thanks

 Short Interest Ratio - Short interest shares divided by average daily volume, representing the number of days of average trading needed to cover the shorts. Latest month as reported by the Exchanges.
