According to Regulation SHO, enacted in 2005, self-regulatory organizations, for example stock exchanges, are required to publish lists for threshold securities, stocks that rank high in trade-settlement failures. Regulation SHO was enacted by the US Securities and Exchange Commission to prevent "naked short selling", short selling of a stock without first borrowing the shares or making sure the shares can be borrowed.

Short Selling
Regular short selling is when the seller first borrows a stock share, sells it and then buys it back, hopefully at a lower price, before returning it. If the stock declines in value, the seller makes a profit. According to Regulation SHO, a short sale order cannot be accepted without the seller having borrowed the shares, a situation which is commonly referred to as naked short selling. -
