RE:ShortingThat's right ramman1, Shorting is an extremely risky tool available to us, and allowing shares to be shorted when they shouldn;t be is the major problem.
It is an interesting time for markets should they consider some sort of regulation to help combat this in the future, let's hope it is appropriately made and not meant to stop the symptom instead of the disease.
Cheers!
