Good idea, have asked for just that, never got call back. Will try again. Thanks

On the stocks in question very low insider ownership, as in 5% or less. As normal nothing makes sense in Short Lend Interest Rate Twilight Zone. But thanks for idea. No one else has been able to answer the riddle. More data. Of the 20,000 or so USA stocks only two have very high lend...

OK the RNKLF situation even became more untenable today for shorts. The expert billionaire gold stock investor is buying RNKLF like crazy in open market, over a million shares per day average last two days. Recent filings Filing date: 2019-02-04 Transaction: 2019-01-30 $RNX Royal Nickel...

Thanks Abnormal!

Abnormal, on that list what do you make of it?

sle, thanks. That makes sense. However, these super high lend rate stocks that NASDAQ claims have very small short positions, yet the market says have huge short positions and thus 80%, 100%, 120% interest rates are not institutionally owned stocks. Take RNKLF, outside of Eric Sprott buying...

Thanks. Will look up that thread OK have looked it up, 14% of shares short says Yahoo yet tiny 2% interest rate to borrow, typical backwards interest rate. https://iborrowdesk.com/report/cvna

OK on top of the rest of the irrationality documented above, RNKLF maybe takes the cake for shorts doing something self destructive. Date Transaction Date Insider Name Ownership Type Securities Nature of transaction Volume or Value Price Feb 1/19 Jan 29/19 2176423 Ontario Ltd. Direct Ownership...

Thanks for info Trend! You learn fast.

Are there any regular shorters here? I am not against you, just want to understand the impossible conflict between the size short position in a stock and the short lending interest rates, which defies the laws of economics.

Thanks neke for answer. Both SAEX and AIPT have averaged over 100% for the last year. For SAEX the price is down a lot and think it is a poor investment and am out of it as AIPT pays almost as much and better biz., and RNKLF is a save biz with solid balance sheet and is about 80% interest...

Hello, Many consider me the most knowledgeable person on shorting mechanics they know. I don't know anyone that knows more than I do on shorting, yet am totally mystified on many hard to explain facts about the topic. Figured that EliteTrader was good place to find people that know more than I...

You are welcome, yes tiny tiny cost on AMD hard to notice so small. TSLA too is often only 1.5% or so, but AIPT 91% and AIPT 106%. Why do people pay so high? Not easy to explain.

I am thinking about starting a thread of issue of "hard to borrow" stocks with massive interest rates, like AIPT, which is often 106% lend rate. A year ago it was $1 now it $1.05 and has been 100%+ to lend for that year. So shorts have paid out maybe $1.15. So if it drops to zero they still...

There is a site that takes that data and then ranks it and you can type in symbol and get rate and shares availible. On the shares availible it is accurate especially if zero, but if they say 200,000 there may be millions, they say"at least". https://iborrowdesk.com/report/HUSA

There is another way to play TSLA that makes a profit unless it goes up fast. 77% likelihood to win, small risk and high profits of stock does anything except go up a lot. It makes good profits at sit still, and has big positive Theta. Here is link to article on Seeking Alpha...

Things may be different than you think. For one in 95% of colleges students are bullied into believing in Democrats or Communists, see Angela Davis. Some recover some do not. So it is no surprise the super rich tend to be Democrats. I can think of 3 super intelligent (Rs or Cons) that say the...

Hi Lotfyisis, sorry for very late replay. Sorta. Right now I do 4x3s short term and it tends to work. Like buy 4 QQQ Sept 14 ATM Call, sell 3 Sept 7 same, it gets theta and wins even and up. Straight Calendars have lower win rate% than above ratio as only wins evenish.

Thanks Spindr, and tfp no. By chance do you know if they can get correct margin on backspread?
