In this paper we developed an econometric model to empirically test thehard-to-borrow model of Avellaneda and Lipkin (2009) where asset prices jumpas result of ``buy-in" procedures. The model is estimated using an extentversion of simulated maximum likelihood (SML) for a selected group ofLeveraged ETF, mainly short LETFs, because these instruments have beensporadically hard-to-borrow and are liquids. In general we do not findenough statistical evidence supporting that hard-to-borrow effect impactsLETFs prices. On the other hand, we did find statistical evidence supportingthe jump-diffusion model for some Leveraged ETFs.
