About Capital Goods Short Selling on the ASX
This ranking measures short interest as a percentage of shares on issue: the aggregated net short position each market participant reports to ASIC, divided by the company's total shares outstanding. Positions must be reported once they exceed $100,000 or 0.01% of issued capital, so smaller positions in capital goods stocks never appear in the data. Rankings are compared against the same sector, since what counts as heavy short interest differs markedly between industries.
Short selling data is sourced from official ASIC reports, published with a T+4 trading day delay. High short interest in capital goods stocks may reflect sector-specific headwinds, commodity exposure, or broader market sentiment. Use the stock screener to filter capital goods stocks by short interest, days to cover, and more.
