Analysis
Short interest trend

52-week context
Positioning sits near the middle of its 52-week range, which does not represent an extreme by recent standards.
Peer comparison
ANDEAN SILVER LIMITED is less shorted than the peer group median (3.79%), by 2.86 percentage points across 6 comparable tickers.
ASIC T+4 vs ASX T+1
ASIC short interest and the ASX T+1 gross short series should not be compared directly (T+1 gross figure from 5 May 2026). ASIC reports outstanding short positions as a percent of shares on issue, while the ASX file reports that day’s gross short sales as a percent of issued capital. Both are normalised percentages, but one is an open-position stock measure and the other is a same-day flow measure.
How to read this
ASIC short position reports land four business days after trade (T+4). They are the most complete view of outstanding short positioning, but they lag. ASX publishes a T+1 gross short-sales series that describes short-selling activity for that trading session as a percent of issued capital, not the stock of open short positions. The two feeds answer different questions, so they should be read alongside each other rather than interpreted as the same metric.
