the rules have changed it has gotten tighter to do naked shorting
naked shorting is selling shares not there...rokers seling shares non existant If u had 1 mill. shares worth $ 1,000,000.00 naked shorting would increase share count say it increased share count to 2 mill. shares = $ 500,00.00
it has gotten harder to short shares very few brokerage firms are naked shoritng in todays market
TdAmeritrade won't do it called them they only have 100 shares you could short
