RE:RE:RE:Shorts What has this got to do with shorts ? The stock market is down due to an increase in the 10 year bond. Everyone has been talking about this risk since the start of the year. It is not so much the fact that rates are at 1.50% (still negative after inflation) it has more to do with how quickly they increased this week. Shorts know how retail investors panick at the first sign of trouble. Cannot stand the usual fall back position of some investors. If the stock goes up I am brillant investor if it goes down it is some conspiracy of the MM's.
