Just a quick question. I have been receiving lots of emails lately from individuals who are interested in shorting stocks under $5 unfortunately, I have never done so myself, so I know nothing about that (I didn't think it was possible, because stocks under $5.00 aren't normally marginable) So in short, if anyone of you knows of a retail broker that will allow this, can you please email me. I'd like to be able to give a better answer than "I don't know of anyone" to those who ask. tony@tonyoz.com Thanks in advance. Tony
IB's list of shortable stocks includes many under 5.00, even WCOM when it was trading at 1.25 but I've never tried it. I always thought, too, it had to be marginable.
