Jan, I just confirmed with my broker and Amzn DOES split June 1st.
The shares will be delivered into my account on June 8th.
<Olu,

The answer is yes. The brokerage house may need the shares you borrowed to short. They can force you to cover.>
Olu,
Glen is right, that is why I would never short a stock on margin.
If you can't afford it, Put's should be the only play.
Just trying to be helpful.
