Lending Market Alert: IDXX
IDEXX Laboratories (IDXX) is experiencing a notable shift in its securities lending profile. The cost to borrow has surged to 0.55%, marking a 109% increase over the past week.
Market Sentiment
This rise in borrow costs is occurring amid tightening share availability for short sellers. While the absolute rate remains relatively low compared to high-squeeze candidates, the rapid percentage increase indicates that the cost of maintaining short positions is rising. Investors should monitor whether this trend continues, as tightening availability often precedes more significant borrow fee spikes and potential volatility for the stock.
