Is 20% short interest a lot?

Most US-listed stocks carry short interest in the low single digits, so 20%+ places a stock in the market's most-shorted tier. The figure states how much of the company is sold short, not why, and it is not a prediction about the share price in either direction.

How current is this list?

US short interest is reported for settlement on the 15th and the last business day of each month, published by FINRA about nine business days later; this page rebuilds with every publication.
