I would say very uncommon... I never had seen it that high before. But Fidelity is only paying the owner 48% so they are keeping a big 65% spread on it. Which means that its a very risky business for the broker who is loaning the shares to the shorts.

There must be something rumbling as shares are short since the borrowed rate has continued to increase like it has at Fidelity to 113.75% The broker's know the deal and we know NOTHING until its either very good or very bad for us.

On a fidelity news link the subscription service FLY ON THE WALL reported the following:
Heavy early volume in MannKind(MNKD) calls as shares lift 4%. Nearly 4K calls have traded early Wednesday, versus zero puts, with upside strikes seeing most of the flow. Largest blocks include a buyer of 1K Jan19 2 calls for 68c and a buyer of 1K Jan19 3 calls for 45c, a few minutes apart when shares were near $2.33. Jan19 3 calls were active yesterday as well, with 5K trading near 41c, net opening 3472 contracts.

Fidelity raised the Borrowed rate again. It is not 113.75%
Seems there is a storm ahead for somebody?
Will it be for the SHORTY or the Long Shareholder?
What is the capitulation point? Seems that there is blood in the streets somewhere.

A couple of points I found interesting. - Said that they put efforts to get more insurers signed up on hold pending the label change, which if successful would allow them to use different strategy and pricing. (Hopefully there would still be time to get on 2018 formularies) - Patents covering Afrezza extend to 2032 and even then it would be very difficult to replicate Afrezza.
I thought he was very specific and clear about that in his call.

Mike refused to answer the question from the crowd about recapitalization, said they had "plenty of ways" - specifically only mentioned that they own their manufacturing plant. $168 million dollar factory owned by Mannkind...market cap..is $123 million...so yep non dilutive..imo I doubt they could get 168 Million for it. I don't see that as a factory other than its currently pledged.

That would be great to get a label designation that no other Insulin has. But you can expect that the Big Pharma boys will lobby the FDA to try and prevent that from happening. This is a war and they are in it to destroy the little company MannKind.

Do instead of telling Mannkind to ensure they work with local pharmacies and distributors and make them aware of the new SKU we blame McKesson which moves so much volume that they could care less of Afrezza which sells 400 scripts a week? Wow 😳 everything in this world even my dog 🐶 is against Afrezza and Mannkind 😀 Who controls the SKU? Does the Doctor begin the process with the Script? How does the Pharma know which SKU. Maybe the issue is also going to be Doctor education. Chicken/Egg situation.

Hopefully MannKind will send out to all the Wholesale companies like McKesson and to all the other companies a letter outlining the issues with the SKU numbers. I am sure they can hit all the big box Pharmas like WBA, CVS, Rite Aid, Walmart and others. The company needs to proactively do this today.

A bit of a wet blanket, are you? So glad you saw right through that, fann! I actually had the same thought as myocat, but did not post it, as I know for a fact I'm a wet blanket! I guess that I need to add fuel to this fire and yes I have been told by some of the best that I am a wet blanket. If you look at pre split .40 then it has to go up 2000 times that to get back to $8.00. Will we see that happen?
