Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK.B) continues to exhibit low borrowing costs, with the latest data from Interactive Brokers showing a borrow fee of 0.25%. There are currently 10,000,000 shares available for short sellers. While this fee is relatively low, the availability of 10 million shares suggests that there is currently no supply-side constraint for those looking to initiate or maintain short positions in the stock. This data is updated every 15 minutes, and any sudden drop in available shares or a spike in the borrow fee would be the primary indicator of a change in sentiment or institutional demand for shorting the stock.
