The following Freedom of Information Act requested information was released by the SEC - the Fail To Deliver (FTD) levels for specific periods of time.
Note that these do not include any ex-clearing FTDs, commonly believed to be orders of magnitude larger than the "in-system" FTDs, nor do they include internationally generated FTDs which are netted by the offshore clearing houses and not reported.
It is believed that these FTDs are post netting in the CNS system, which nets all delivery failures against shares held long in broker accounts, and only triggers a failure once all those shares have been used to offset the failures in the netting system.
2005-2006 FTDs for ALD - note how they increased when the SEC launched their since dropped probe, which turned up squat?
