What does this mean,

On my online account, on the trading section. I get the following message in bright red:

"Short Sales in this security are subject to NASD regulations, UPC 11830. Shares may be difficult to borrow."

Does this mean that shares are already shorted big time and there is not much left to get shorted? Does not make a lot of sense considering the move we just had.

It is the only stock on my portfolio which the message comes up for. I also tried another 15 or so small cap/large cap, high float/low float, on the uptrend, on the down trend.... None of them gave me the same message. If you have a take I love to hear it.
