FIS Short Interest Update
Fidelity National Information Services (FIS) has seen a slight uptick in short interest, according to the most recent settlement data. As of August 31, 2026, short interest reached 17.0 million shares, representing approximately 3.3% of the company's shares outstanding. This is a marginal increase from the 3.1% reported in the August 14, 2026, settlement.
Market Context and Borrowing
The current days-to-cover ratio stands at 3.3, which is considered elevated relative to the broader market median. Despite the increase in open short positions, the cost to borrow remains relatively stable at 0.3% as of September 25, 2026. Investors should note that while this represents a growth in open positions, the overall short interest remains within a moderate range for a company of this size. We continue to monitor for any significant shifts in lending market availability that could signal increased bearish conviction.
