If they use their own cash, the shares are not loaned.\nCastillo traded GameStop shares without using borrowed funds, but he still feared his shares would be lent.\nHe said he read about the \"direct registration\" of shares on Reddit, the social media platform that day traders turned to this year after the meme stock trading frenzy took off. There, more and more investors have announced they have taken their shares out of brokerages through companies such as Computershare, arguing this will help shield them from short-selling.\n\"There is so much going on with a stock being shorted, people started to think how can I make sure that I own it and that somebody else isn't doing anything that I don't want with it,\" Castillo said in an interview.\nA Fidelity spokesperson declined to comment.\nPaul Conn, president of Computershare's global capital markets group, said he saw a wave of direct registration business starting in September that was driven by day traders.\n\"Retail investors have asked their broker or bank to remove their investments from the 'street name' system and into their own name, directly onto the company's share register,\" Conn said.\nHedge funds short shares by borrowing and selling them, hoping they will drop in value so they can buy them back for less and pocket the difference. Financial market experts said the push towards direct registration was unlikely to curtail this practice, because most hedge funds' collateral comes from prime brokers rather than retail brokerages.\n\"The shares used to stock-loan from margined retail accounts are minimal compared to the stock-loan inventory from prime brokers and long lenders such as mutual funds and pension funds,\" said research firm S3 Partners managing director Ihor Dusaniwsky.\nMonthly average trading volumes of GameStop shares have dropped since July to their lowest levels for more than a year, according to Refinitiv data. That was about the time that Reddit users began to advocate for the direct registration of shares.\nThe more shares are transferred out of brokerages into direct registration providers such as Computershare, the fewer of them are available to trade.Joshua Mitts, a securities law professor at Columbia Law School, said removing shares from the market makes them more susceptible to wild price swings, which could end up hurting the retail investors.\n\"From a psychological point of view, I can see how that resonates. But from an economic point of view it does not make much sense, because with fewer shares available the trading is simply going to become more volatile,\" Mitts said.\nA GameStop spokesperson declined to comment. Popular trading apps such as Robinhood Markets Inc and SoFi Technologies Inc, as well traditional brokerages such as Charles Schwab Corp and Fidelity, would lose out if the direct registration trend intensified. They benefited from this year's surge in trading of meme stocks.\nRobinhood and Charles Schwab representatives reiterated that only shares of customers who have borrowed from the brokerages to invest are loaned to hedge funds.\n\"We have seen an uptick in recent months of clients requesting to hold certain securities outside of Charles Schwab as a means to prevent them from being lent out,\" the brokerage's managing director of trading and education, Jeff Chiappetta, said in a statement.\nMany requests were made by clients who bought shares without borrowing from Charles Schwab and would not have had their shares lent, Chiappetta added.\nA SoFi spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment.\nTRADING CURBS\nRetail investors started to mistrust brokerages when Robinhood and its peers placed trading restrictions in late January on GameStop's shares. Thousands of investors claimed on social media that the trading curbs were introduced to protect hedge funds that had lost billions of dollars shorting the stock without anticipating a Reddit-fueled rally.\nCommission-free brokerages such as Robinhood rely on payment for order flow, under which they receive fees from market makers for routing trades to them. This business model has also made retail investors suspicious, especially since Citadel Securities, which acts as Robinhood's market maker, also runs hedge funds that engage in short-selling.\nRobinhood and Citadel have insisted that the trading restrictions were not put in place to protect hedge funds, but were needed because Robinhood did not have enough collateral to execute customers' trades.\nA U.S. judge sided with Robinhood on the matter last month, dismissing an investor lawsuit accusing the trading app and other brokerages of wrongly preventing retail investors from buying fast-rising \"meme stocks\" and triggering a sell-off.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":691633514,"gmtCreate":1640180825477,"gmtModify":1640180884139,"author":{"id":"3574916293171379","authorId":"3574916293171379","name":"trojan1337","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/943a776c7741ee5cc4d67b3592fbb000","vip":1,"crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3574916293171379","idStr":"3574916293171379"},"htmlText":"Jan 2021 was due to investors fomo, not due to shorts covering.
