Utilisation levels for Twitter remain high after low trading levels in the Christmas month, SunGard reported.
The firm���s Astec Analytics business reported that, with relatively thin trade during what was effectively a holiday week for most, Twitter saw its share price retrace the minor pull-back suffered during the latter sessions of December.
���As utilisation levels for the stock remain high, an increase in demand to borrow as 2014 kicks off has led to a sharp increase in the cost of borrowing, which has tripled since 30 December,��� said a statement from the firm.
A tweet on 8 January from BondLend reported seeing Twitter as 90 percent utilised, with fees to borrow dropping again since last week���s rise.
