Pursuant to a Securities and Exchange Commission request, FINRA has agreed to make reported short sale trade data publicly available. Daily Short Sale Volume File formatting guide. Please note that in rare instances, files may be updated on the next business day. Original files will be retained and updated files will be identified as "Updated".

From what I understand, MM's create liquidity by buying and selling for their own account while placing trades for brokers. They report any shortfall they have for the day and are given time to buy those shares back.

Am I mistaken?
