We generally ignore comments like this that usually aren’t worth our time responding to, but there are a few inaccuracies in this @DonutShorts thread that are worth addressing.
For starters, our business is to provide data and analytics to investors, which means our mission is to provide the most accurate data that we can. We are not trying to "foment" anything.
We do not calculate or estimate FF internally, but instead rely on S&P Global Market Intelligence @SPGlobal to provide. Presumably, @DonutShorts knows and appreciates that S&P is one of the largest and most authoritative sources for market data on Earth.

$AMC - Trading Update

#AMC cost to borrow for #ShortSellers #ShortInterest has absolutely surged over the past month.
The recent spike in $AMC CTB demonstrates that a sustained utilization rate of 100% does not necessarily translate into a higher propensity to pay borrowing fees, as discussed in this previous thread.

If you compare $AMC utilization and CTB over the past year, it’s hard to see any direct correlations in the data. While utilization and CTB are somewhat related, both metrics can fluctuate independently and provide investors with different info regarding the lending market.

With #NakedShorting trending today, it may be useful to brush up on the mechanics of how #shorts work.

First, a refresher on how #ShortInterest can grow to extraordinarily high levels, even greater than the float. And yes, it's legal (1/)

I watched @MelissaLeeCNBC's discussion with @timseymour and @GuyAdami on @CNBCFastMoney. Blurting "naked short" is hardly evidence that a conspiracy of #NakedShorting exists. It's illegal, and as a result most firms go to great lengths to prohibit their customers from it (2/)
Obviously because something is illegal and discouraged doesn't mean that it isn't going on somewhere. I can't prove that #NakedShorting isn't going on. But I suspect that some are confusing naked short sales (illegal) with naked options writing (legal but risky) (3/)
