Disclaimer

Please read before relying on anything published on this site. Last updated 22 April 2026.

General information only

Content on Shorted.com.au — including stock pages, screener results, weekly and monthly reports, blog posts, AI-generated commentary, and the Shorted AI chat — is published for general information and educational purposes only. It is not financial product advice within the meaning of section 766B of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and does not take into account your personal objectives, financial situation, or needs.

Before acting on any information on this site you should consider whether it is appropriate for your circumstances and, where relevant, obtain independent financial, legal, and taxation advice from a licensed professional.

Not a recommendation

Short interest data, screener outputs, rankings, sector aggregates, and any labels such as "short squeeze candidate", "dividend pressure", or "hard to cover" are descriptive, not prescriptive. They are not recommendations to buy, sell, hold, or short any security. Shorted does not manage client money and does not hold an Australian Financial Services Licence.

Data accuracy

We take care to reproduce ASIC short position data faithfully (see our methodology), but:

  • Data is delayed by at least four trading days (T+4) as published by ASIC.
  • Short positions below ASIC's reporting threshold (0.01% of issued capital or A$100,000, whichever is less) are not included and cannot be inferred.
  • ASIC may restate historical figures; we reflect the current ASIC record and do not retain superseded values.
  • Company metadata, prices, news, and derived metrics may contain errors, gaps, or processing lag.

If you believe a specific number is wrong, please email [email protected] with the stock code and date and we will investigate.

AI-generated content

Weekly reports, enrichment summaries, director-trade commentary, and responses from the Shorted AI chat are produced by large language models operating over the ASIC dataset and public sources. AI outputs can be incomplete, outdated, or wrong. Do not rely on AI-generated text without independent verification against the primary source (ASIC, company announcements, or your broker). Where an AI summary cites a fact, prefer the underlying data on the stock page over the summary.

Past performance

Historical short positions, price movements, and any back-tested examples do not indicate future performance. Short selling carries unlimited downside risk and is not suitable for all investors.

No liability

To the maximum extent permitted by Australian law, Shorted, its operators, and contributors exclude all liability for any loss or damage (including indirect, consequential, or incidental loss) arising from use of, or reliance on, any content on this site.

Regulatory context

Shorted.com.au publishes data pursuant to the short-selling reporting regime established under the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) — in particular sections 1020B (naked short selling), 1020AB (transaction reporting), and 1020AC (position reporting) — and administered by ASIC under Regulatory Guide 196.
