They are the highest values in our archive, which starts 2 Nov 2012 for Denmark; positions may have been higher before records began. A single report sitting at three times both neighbouring reports is treated as a reporting artefact and never counts as a record.

Records are within our dataset only and reflect disclosed positions (≥ 0.1%, the regulator's own aggregate); true short interest can be higher. A "–" in Now means the company currently has no disclosed positions or has left the market. Nothing here is investment advice.
