>>>they should be *made* to inform their customers that their shares have been lent out short. That would make it harder to sell short, which would not be a bad thing IMO.<<<< Would it be possible to have a notation on a street-name account that says: DO NOT HYPOTHECATE ANY SHARES? Would that prevent them from lending them out?
