Got a notice from Interactive Brokers that a long list of Chinese based stocks will no longer be marginable as of next Friday. If anyone knows of any other brokers doing the same thing, please let me know.

I'm pondering a spec play in some of these. I've heard that a lot of hedge funds have been shorting Chinese stocks recently, so combined with the increased margin requirements, these stocks may be driven down further and set up the possibility of a strong bounce in a week or 2.
