That is simply not correct.

Many brokers will allow you to short stocks that are under $5.

TDAmeritrade will let you short penny stocks if you meet their capital requirements of $2.50 per share. It takes a lot of capital to do that, but it is possible. Other brokers will allow you to short pennies. Each has their own capital requirements.

BOREDOM, It's a terrible thing to waste.
