What this page is

Baidu in the regulatory record

Regulators publish company data in separate files that never sit next to each other: FINRA's twice-monthly short interest, its daily short sale volume, the SEC's fails-to-deliver counts, and each insider's Form 4. A company page puts those series for one ticker on one URL, with planned sales, large holders, 13F holders and financials beside them, so the short position, the daily flow, the settlement fails and what insiders are doing can be read together.

Each section has its own history table, a one-line summary of the latest figures and its own JSON and CSV links, and says when its source last updated.

This page follows Baidu (BIDU), SEC CIK 1329099, listed on Nasdaq, classified by the SEC as services-computer programming, data processing, etc.. The cross-market tables live on the short interest and insider transactions hubs.

How to read it

Read the position against the flow: rising short interest with a high daily short share is new shorting; rising short interest with a normal short share is old shorts holding on.
Insider buys next to a large short position are rare and stand out; insider sells next to one are common and mean little.
Fails to deliver matter relative to the float, not in absolute shares; a million failed shares in a mega cap is noise.
