    Sorry, you are right. SPRT is a threshold stock. No shorting.

    What does "threshold" mean exactly? Never heard that term for a stock thats not shortable.

    Difference is peanuts on a daily basis. You don't switch firms based on that rationale. Tomorrow it could be the reverse.
    Further rates change on a daily basis.
    Furthermore, wedbush clearing firm of lightspeed might better be able to accommodate traders in sprt tomorrow.
