Andiamo Corp. (ANDI)

[TenKay]

Actually I have rarely seen it referred to as a "charge". "Margin" certainly isn't a "charge".

But when looking at a stock like ANDI, if someone was able to find enough stock to borrow to make say $1000 AT MOST if the ticker dropped to 0.0001 they would need to put up $250,000 in margin (ALL at risk).

That type of risk makes no sense on ANY level.

And that margin requirement is the primary reason why penny stocks are rarely shorted.
