Broker with the best list of shortable stocks?

Quote from Toonces:

If I remember correctly, they clear through Southwest, correct? I opened an account with JPR (which clears through Southwest) just for shorting. In 3 months, I have attempted several shorts (that I was unable to short through IB) and every single one was rejected. I would assume that all Southwest firms have the same short list.

Actually from what I understand hold brothers is now self clearing. I don't know if this would help their short list but I'm assuming it would shrink the list....

Where are the hold traders...?:p
