Those must be institutional or shorts with inside connections to some broker, because I checked EGRP, Datek, MB Trading, and A.B. Watley when XYBR was above $5 and none of these on-line brokers would allow me to short it. I'll admit I did not check with any Canadian brokers which are often the most likely to fudge and let margin folks short NASD issues even though they don't have access to borrowing shares. So, if you find a American broker that has shares to loan and short against next time it is above $5, please let me know.
