"(Excuse any ignorance here - but how can you sell a share if you haven't borrowed it in the first place ? i.e. where does the share come from - from existing holdings ?)"
JArecki,
I agree with you that it should be the case but, Why don't you ask the hedge funds how they are doing it, and getting away with it.
It is a known fact that they are, and have been doing it, for a long while now. That is why it is called naked shorting. That is the selling of shares which have not been borrowed.
