Before 2026: the named era

Reconstructed from the frozen named register: the sum of individually disclosed positions of 0.5% or more in KINGFISHER PLC at each disclosure date, back to 27 Jan 2016. This is a lower bound and a different measure from today's aggregate above, because positions between 0.1% and 0.5% were reported to the FCA but never published with names, so the two series are charted separately and are not comparable point for point. See the methodology.

Frequently asked questions

How shorted is KINGFISHER PLC right now?
10.18% of KINGFISHER PLC's issued share capital was sold short as of 8 Oct 2026, per the FCA's aggregate net short position publication. That makes it the 14th most shorted UK stock, out of 421 companies with disclosed positions.
What is KINGFISHER PLC's short interest?
10.18% of issued share capital as of 8 Oct 2026. "Short interest" is the US term; the FCA publishes the aggregate net short position, the sum of every disclosed position of 0.2% or more, so it is a lower bound on all short selling in the stock.
What does this number include?
It is the sum of every individual net short position amounting to 0.2% or more of the company's issued share capital, as notified to the FCA. Smaller positions are not counted, so total short interest can be somewhat higher.
Which funds are shorting KINGFISHER PLC?
Since 13 July 2026 the FCA no longer publishes position-holder names, only the aggregate per company. The final named register (as of 10 Jul 2026) listed 7 funds with positions of 0.5% or more in KINGFISHER PLC, led by AKO Capital LLP at 1.66%; the full final list is preserved on this page.
How often is this updated?
The FCA publishes every working day around midday, two working days after the position date. We ingest each publication the same day and re-check recent days for corrections.
