PPLT had one of the most concentrated periods from May 2025 to late June 2025 of clearing firms failing to deliver shares. (top chart)
Failure can occur when a buyer (the party with a long position) doesn't have enough money to take delivery and pay for the transaction at settlement.
A failure can also occur when the seller (the party with a short position) does not own all or any of the underlying assets required at settlement, and so cannot make the delivery.
