Over 300% loan rate for the highest rate in the article?

that is kids stuff

in the last year I saw a stock that had a 20% loan rate, increased to 50%, then 75%...and up and up to: 920%

no kidding

scary stuff for short sellers

Muddy Waters doesn't short stocks simply because they're_"too_high." If you want to successfully short, first become expert at reading filings, and especially accounting-related footnotes, the excruciatingly boring stuff that requires knowledge and hard work. 99.9% of local penny flippers won't do that. Plus obvious short candidates -- Chinese junk for example -- can be very costly to borrow.

Never short a stock just because it pissed you off.
