AMD Short Selling Pressure
On October 28, 2026, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) experienced a notable surge in short-selling activity. According to FINRA Reg SHO data, the daily short volume reached 5,523,933 shares, representing 57.73% of the day's total reported volume. This figure sits above the 30-day average short volume of 56.20%, indicating an intensification of bearish flow.
Understanding the Flow
It is critical to distinguish that this data represents daily short sale volume (flow), not the total open short interest. This high percentage reflects heavy intraday short-selling pressure rather than a change in the total number of shares held short. Market participants should monitor whether this elevated flow persists or if it leads to a buildup in official short interest figures in the coming weeks.
