If there is a shortage of stock to loan, it
doesn't necesarily mean manipulation. The stock loan box is a function of supply
and demand. Stocks are loaned in exchange for a piece of the interest that will
be earned on the resulting cash when the stock is sold.
If interest rates are very low, as they are now,
there may not be enough incentive for people to loan the stocks.
Additionally, under the current anxious enviroment, people may be concerned
enough about financial security to demand delivery of their certificates.
This reduces the supply of available street certificates for loan. So, given the
current enviroment of low interest rates and high anxiety, I can see where a
shortage of stocks for loan is very possible.
Cheers,
Norman

MSFT I'm
sure you noticed that "they" were buying MSFT this morning trying to
keep it up to create firm tone to get S & P traders to cover shorts...
now softy below 57 again. Richard Ney was the person I'm most
familiar with who is a big tracker of blks.. It takes a while to get a
feel for it and it does require a bit of intuition........

block technique looks very intriguing. One other rter used to
follow them. Believe it was Gitanshu Buch. Right now we have
the kiss of breadth going on in the Nasdaq. It looks improved from
this morning, but the NDX has been inching up as the issue and volume
breadth has been and remains net negative.<FONT

activity ON MSFT USING
MSFT data below.. note the lowest of the blks is 57.. MSFT has dropped
below the higher blk trades which will now become resistance vs
support.. so once below 57 all the mutual funds that bot softy are
under water... These stocks many are back up to 9/17 or pre 911 and
the specialists and market makers will jump at the chance to sell what
they had to buy on the way down and then they will go short again... I
WILL CHECK AND SEE WHAT PRICES OF BLKS IF ANY ARE ON THE OTHERS...
I BELIEVE I SENT CSCO EARLIER....
