Lending Market Scarcity
Data from IBorrowDesk shows a significant reduction in the number of shares available to borrow for AMC Entertainment (AMC). While this data is specific to Interactive Brokers, it often serves as a reliable proxy for broader market liquidity in hard-to-borrow names. A collapse in availability, coupled with rising borrow fees, indicates that the supply of shares for shorting is drying up. This scarcity often forces short sellers to pay a premium to maintain their positions, increasing the risk of a forced buy-back if the stock price trends upward.
