It may have implications for naked shorts though because the stock has to reconciled. Not sure if I am right or not, I would need to think about that a bit.

How does this effect the shorts if all the shares are returned?

FYI, the last figure I heard was there were about 750 naked shares that were shorted. I could be wrong, but I don't think the naked shares will have much of an impact one way or the other

You must be stating #alternativefacts.

How does this effect the shorts if all the shares are returned? Technically the short position evaporates as all shares are recalled. What really happens is nothing. The short position is adjusted and left in place. Once the split is completed the broker must borrow new stock to cover that naked position. If they cannot get sufficient stock they will close the position at market. There is relatively little impact since usually anyone who was lending before will be lending afterwards.

Would this event have an impact on those shorts? If the answer is yes then this is the acid test as to the naked short thesis.

But they would have seen this coming and covered them over the last couple weeks don't you think? I am very curious to see how things go today / tomorrow

You must be stating #alternativefacts. Another rationalist! The most recent number is actually at 48,537 shares as of as of the last report (Feb 14), but that's 5 minutes of trading volume. www.sec.gov/foia/docs/failsdata.htm

The CUSIP changes so everything gets recalled, replaced, and loaned out again. So, if recall/replace/reloan is what happens, is there a reauthorization by the lending shareholder or does it happen automagically? If not automagically, what a wonderful opportunity to say no to lending your shares to shorts! Just thinking...
