Datek seems to always have some which leads me to believe you have a higher risk of having your shares called away from you if they are unable to borrow them after a few days..

David, you're right about them seemingly always having short shares available. But my understanding, is that if they can't borrow those shares, they must call them in that day, for covering at market open the following day.

In any event, I'll let everyone know if this happens.

I'll also be trying to get another 200 if they go to 50.

If they go to 55, there will be 400 more shares out there for some else to short. :)
