Then Schwab is different than Fidelity in that I have to call Fidelity and tell them which stock or stocks that I am unwilling to have them borrow.

When I owned CTIX (now IPIX) and XXII, and wasn't signed up for the lending program, Fidelity called and asked if I was interested in loaning my shares. They are both OTC stocks. These calls didn't come until the share price was $3 or $4.

Do you know if Schwab lends shares from their mutual funds to the shorts. I asked and found out that Fidelity does. This is where most of the availability of shares to short comes from at Fidelity.
