Borrow rates

  1. 1) Do borrow rates at the large brokers (Interactive Brokers, Charles Schwab, Ameritrade, E-Trade, Fidelity) reflect a unique market rate or do borrow rates differ among brokers?

    2) The current borrow rate for BYND at Interactive Brokers is 187.61%.
    What is the BYND borrow rate at:
    Charles Schwab?
    Ameritrade?
    E-Trade?
    Fidelity?

    3) In light of the ubiquitous commission-free trading, should we expect an upward pressure on borrow rates?

    4) I cannot seem to find borrow rates on the Bloomberg terminal. Maybe I am just searching using the wrong terms. Does Bloomberg track US stock borrow rates?
