Daily Short Flow
According to FINRA Reg SHO data for the session of October 28, 2026, Baker Hughes (BKR) experienced a notable increase in off-exchange short volume. The short-volume ratio reached 48%, representing a deviation of +2.0 standard deviations from the stock's 20-session average.
Contextualizing the Data
It is critical to note that this figure represents daily trading flow (short volume) rather than open short interest. The high concentration of short-marked trades suggests heavy intraday selling pressure or market-maker hedging activity. While this does not confirm a change in long-term open positions, the statistical deviation from the mean highlights an active day for bearish participants in the energy sector.
