there would be no legal impediment to such a transaction ..provided they are not associated with the party they are lending to...and who is then shorting the stock....but any stock being shorted would show up on the asic site...but the lender would remain unknown.....it would have to be dne on a commercial basis to avoid being accused of manipulating the stock...a party cannot hold a stock and short it at the same time....
