Fidelity today is only paying me 9.25% to lend out my shares for shorting. All shares OMER are on loan at this firm. I do not loan out my shares at another firm.
I used to hold an oil stock, CWEI, that was paying upwards of 25% for lending out shares. It had great properties in the Midland and Permian basins in TX. Gamblers were calling for bankruptcy on this one, and the price dropped to the low teens. It later was bought out for over $100 a share.
Not saying that OMER gets bought out though. After all this energy put in, why sell out (both for usas investors, and for the largest stakeholder, the CEO).
