The stabilization of low-frequency background and hot-electron interchange modes is studied by using a relatively simple multi-fluid model. Physical pictures for the stabilization mechanisms such as the ''charge-uncovering'' effect are given and compared with the stabilization of interchange modes by the finite Larmor radius (FLR) effect.
