Do any brokers for individual traders offer short rebates?


Question:
Generally when an institution sells a stock or bond short, the balance of that sale is invested in an interest-bearing account and rebated back to the short seller as a "short rebate." My current broker, Fidelity, does not offer short rebates to its customers. Do any of the brokers that give accounts to individuals offer short rebates?

Answer:
It's not whether you are an institution, but a function of the volume of business. If you're not making $10-million trades,it's not worth the trouble for the broker. If you are doing that kind of size, call Schwab.
