I suggest that anyone who believes that the FINRA daily short data reflects "shorting" of a stock or that the data can be used to prove anything contact FINRA directly for an explanation.

Questions regarding OTC equity short interest data may be directed to the Legal Section, Market Regulation at (240) 386-5126, or Office of General Counsel at (202) 728-8071.

The semi-monthly reports are the ones that show actual short interest. With the exception of five days early this year, VDSC has not been flagged as a Rule 4320 threshold stock.

FINRA Rule 4320 applies companies with unregistered stock and is an alternative to Reg SHO, which applies only to fully reporting companies with registered stock.
