摘要：
The interaction between the spot and lending markets for stocks can lead to abrupt changes in short selling. Furthermore, rational short sellers may choose to abandon the market even as mispricing widens. The model can help explain the fat-tailed dynamics of short selling in the data, and further provides conditions identifying stocks that are more likely to experience large and abrupt changes in short selling. We verify these predictions empirically. We also apply the theory to understand curious patterns in the behavior of short sellers during one of the historically worst periods for short selling, November 2020–January 2021.
