Although Fails to deliver do happen across the market from time to time and normally don’t raise much questioning, in this case it seems like there could in fact be something bigger going on such as naked short selling.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Naked shorting is the now-illegal practice of selling short shares that have not been affirmatively determined to exist. 
  • Ordinarily, traders must first borrow a stock or determine that it can be borrowed before they sell it short.
  • Due to various loopholes in the rules, and discrepancies between paper and electronic trading systems, naked shorting continues to happen.
  • Although controversial, some believe naked shorting plays an important and positive market role in price discovery.

Regardless of what is truly going on currently, there is hope that justice will be served soon. The Justice Department Targets ‘Spoofing’ and ‘Scalping’ in Short Seller Investigation which is ongoing.
