RE:STOP ALL SHORT SELLINGI heard someone point out that stocks go up and they go down and that placing a bet on either one is completely fine. I don't believe the stock market was ever intended to be a gamble otherwise they would be regulated by the gaming commission. The market was created for a way that companies could list to create funds to grow. If they had a good business model and a product that was in demand they grew if not they failed. Shorting is criminal... at least in countries that have any kind of backbone. The financial system is a complete scam which we all know. Things will never change as they have all the power but if the people continue to voice their concerns in a meaningful way we may just get some kind of reform.
