Official exchange data provided by FINRA confirms that as of October 30, 2026, GameStop Corp (GME) had 42,393,750 shares held short. This represents approximately 10.06% of the float. While this figure is the most authoritative data point available, it is important to note that it is based on the bi-monthly settlement cycle and is inherently stale compared to intraday lending market activity. Traders should cross-reference this official figure with real-time borrow availability and daily short volume flow to gauge current market sentiment. The stock continues to exhibit high retail interest, and any divergence between this official figure and real-time lending data could signal a shift in institutional positioning.
