Per the SEC's definition of their FTD report.

"Fails to deliver on a given day are a cumulative number of all fails outstanding until that day, plus new fails that occur that day, less fails that settle that day. The figure is not a daily amount of fails, but a combined figure that includes both new fails on the reporting day as well as existing fails. In other words, these numbers reflect aggregate fails as of a specific point in time, and may have little or no relationship to yesterday's aggregate fails."

20100312 BEDA 45,235,172 83,262,944 54%

So, in looking at the above number. Per the SEC this figure is new fails recorded today and could be or may not be existing fails. And it could be that these fails may reflect past fails or not...

Either way, over half of todays volume. That's a big number considering the TA reports only 400+ in the float. Hmmm.
