What are fails-to-deliver (FTD) for D?

A fail-to-deliver happens when a trade in D isn't settled by the delivery date — the seller doesn't hand over the shares on time. The SEC publishes the aggregate number of D shares that failed to deliver on each settlement date. The latest published figure is 146K shares (settled 2026-06-08).

Does a high FTD mean D is heavily shorted?

Not directly. Fails-to-deliver is a settlement metric, not short interest — fails arise from mechanical settlement issues, market-making, and long as well as short sellers. A persistent, large fail relative to a name's own history can be worth noting, but FTD alone is not a measure of how shorted a stock is.

How often is D FTD data updated?

The SEC releases fails-to-deliver data twice a month — one file for the first half of each month and one for the second — with a lag. Settlement itself is T+1 (the business day after the trade). Under Regulation SHO, participants must generally close out short-sale fails by the next settlement day (longer windows exist for long sales, bona-fide market making, and certain deemed-to-own securities), and names with large persistent fails can join the exchange threshold-security list after 5 consecutive settlement days.

Is D's fails-to-deliver a buy or sell signal?

On its own, no — FTD is context, not a verdict. Our current SEC-grounded rating on D is HOLD, based on the company's filings rather than settlement mechanics. Use the fails history as one input alongside the fundamentals.

How to read this data

What a fail is. A fail-to-deliver occurs when the seller in a trade doesn’t deliver the shares by the settlement date. The figure here is the aggregate number of shares of D that failed to deliver on each settlement date, as reported by the SEC.
Settlement is T+1. US equities settle one business day after the trade (T+1 since May 2024), so the settlement date shown is one business day after the trade that failed.
The SEC publishes twice a month. Fails data is released in two files per month — the first and second halves — on a lag, so the most recent settlement dates appear only after the next publication.
Reg SHO close-out. Participants must generally close out short-sale fails by the next settlement day after they arise (longer windows apply to long-sale and bona-fide market-making fails, and a 35-calendar-day window only to certain deemed-to-own securities). Names whose fails stay large for 5 consecutive settlement days join the exchange threshold-security list, which brings stricter close-out duties — so persistent large fails are the exception, not the norm.
Not short interest. Fails arise from settlement mechanics and market making as well as short selling, and are not a direct measure of how heavily a stock is shorted. The SEC price column is the prior-day closing price the SEC ships in the same file — we use it only to approximate a dollar value; no market-data feed is involved.
