Frequently asked questions

What is IPGP's short interest?
As of the FINRA settlement date 2026-09-30, IPGP had 3.7M shares sold short — 14.5% of its float, with 8.6 days to cover at average volume. FINRA publishes this data roughly two weeks after each twice-monthly settlement, so it is inherently delayed. A short-interest figure describes an aggregate position; it does not predict what the stock will do.
