Well it seems I tried. In all hours of pre-market / main market / after hours trade today my broker TDA rejected my short position order. Cash in account so I was not going on margin. I suspect pretty much all the major brokers had no inventory of NAKD shares to allow for clients to go short.

In early morning trade, NAKD peak at $1.90 and for most of general trading hours it hovered around $1.50 range to a low of $1.33. Currently in after hours its around $1.43.

I wonder who are those investors that participated in the new share offering at a $1.70 price tag??? A 15+% premium of what one can buy on the open market.
