I believe you are referring to margin loans. In general, the money for a margin loan comes from the broker. E.g., if I take out a margin loan at Fidelity, it is Fidelity who is lending me the money.

Now where they get it from is another question. Maybe you should ask your broker about that.

Are you referring to the general "loans create deposits" process whereby credit money in general is created by bank lending as described in http://www.bankofengland.co.uk/publicat ... 14q102.pdf

yeah...so a broker loans out cash for someone to buy stocks...

the broker gets the cash from a bank? so it's ultimately consumer deposits that disappear if the margin loans default?

No. FDIC will cover those deposits.
