CRML Lending Market Update
CRML has officially hit 100% utilization, matching its 52-week high. This indicates that virtually all lendable shares are currently on loan, leaving no buffer for new short positions without significant upward pressure on borrow fees. The lack of available shares is a strong signal of a crowded short trade. Market participants should watch for potential borrow fee spikes, as the current supply-demand imbalance in the securities lending market for CRML is at its most extreme point in the last year.
