I was told from my Fidelity representative that they will not contact people who have MNKD in their retirement accounts (I have some here) and accounts that have over 10,000 shares. You can call them and they will let you know.

My friend had to call Fidelity and fill out the paperwork to sign up for the share lending program. I've heard you need $100k equity in your account, but I can't confirm this. Like sue said, it can't be a retirement account either.

My shares in my Roth are lent out. Who is the broker you use and would you share what your interest rate is? Fidelity-18%. I have a Trust account and a Roth IRA. I lend out my shares in both accounts.

I have shares in both retirement and non-retirement lent out through Schwab. I had to call their lending program office and initiate myself. They did not contact me.

Glad that no one is buying on margin or buying short term calls so panic doesn't set in... In a sea of RED one symbol stands out in bright GREEN today...this is what happens when shareholders have been through the battle scars of margin and short term calls and have learned their lessons Closing Price

Like a crate of trapped rats being lowered into a burning inferno (when you read Sam's latest blog and continue to realize the malevolence of actions by not just the HF(s) that are short but some of their own ala DK) you long for the day you can hear them squeal.

Fidelity increased loan rate to shareholder . Now 21 % . The increase from 19.5 % to 21 % took place I think some time Sunday morning Sept 6 , 2015 . I guess they are expecting increased demand during the next week ?

Perhaps another run up like the May event. Or perhaps THE PERFECT STORM.

I guess they are expecting increased demand during the next week ? I've been thinking about this too. If when the interest rises does this signal a bear raid. We'll know in a couple of days. thekindofguyiyam , it is very difficult to estimate short demand , because the naked short shares do not have to be covered for a number of days and the amount shorted and covered shares is not know . But we do know when the demand for short shares increase , by a change in the lending rate . The lending rate may have changed on Friday for the short borrower and Fidelity changed the pay out to the lenders on Sunday . What we do know is the borrowing rate points to a higher cost to short shares , which means there are less shares available to borrow . There could be various reasons for less shares to borrow , like shareholders are not lending enough shares, more shorting is taking place or both. Joeypotsandpans and other board members are much more knowable about these areas . My thought was the shorts shares and the naked shorts will increase this coming week driving the price down or at least minimizing any gains . It is just history repeating it's self . Our time will come when Afrezza is selling and other TS applications are in or near market. Of course a buy in or buyout could happen also .

gwb. thanks for that.
this has probably been discussed to the nth, and I'm not current. if the info is on this board I can find it... all i have to do is read the 58 pages that led to this one. With that said, I still would speculate that the view of increased interest payout (as you suggest) refers to supply and demand. I have stated that the stories by seeking alpha (with a few exceptions; Thank You Rob!), motley fool etc. use the media to cover a pre planned attack on the price point. It seems that we both think the price is about to be manipulated downward. It's such temporary bs I detach unless in the place to acquire more. I wouldn't bet on a buyout. Mannkind is Alfred's namesake and a representation of his life's achievement. That would come in at a hell of a price. I'm thinking we are going to be getting some interesting stories coming along with the percentage increase. We'll see. I'm thinking smoke and mirrors heading our way. Good thing we know what we know.

I guess they are expecting increased demand during the next week ? Can someone with a sharp pencil come up with a graph that plots both the share price and the rate paid to borrow shares over the past year(s)?
