I have heard from somewhere (forgot where) that if you have a margin account with certain brokers that they can lend out your shares without asking you or compensating you. Is that true?

Fidelity will not without your written consent to lend. Currently (5/17), paying 32% to those who lend. Don't know how much they charge to borrowers. Don't know how other firms handle it.

Read your brokerage contract carefully; what is true for some brokers is not true for all. Your rights and obligations should be clearly spelled out, and if you have had the account a while make sure you are looking at the most recently updated version. If you don't have a copy, ask for them to main you a new one.

Generally if you shares are held in a non margin (cash) account, brokerages are not able to lend without your permission. If the share are held in a margin account then it is up to the brokerage's discretion to lend out the shares without compensation to the shareholder.

TD Ameritrade does this if you have a margin account. They lend out your shares to those shorting it and they don't compensated the account holder who they are borrowing shares from.

Having MNKD shares on margin today has got to be nerve racking. I had some on margin back when it was over 5.00 a share. Naturally all them shares on margin were called back and I lost big..if we could get some big news and a large increase in scripts then I would consider buying more on margin. But can't now it's just way to risky.
