I was advised by a broker at Shaw stockbroking and another independently at Macquarie. It is also can be obtained by getting full fund transcripts of fund the income. It doesn't disclose SYR but it does shown income from a number of shortsellers. Given their holdings and the other stocks they hold I can't image that they are lending out stocks to shorters and SYR is not on that list. They might have also done with their JBHI given that's number 2 on the list. Income is listed as "covered calls". I don't mind they do it ...its the naked short selling that annoys me.
