RE:This is a must read. It’s about naked short selling..Short selling makes a mockery of the positive instrument called the stock market. The use of this tool reduces the market to level of a gambling casino. The stock market has provided working capital for companies to ensure growth and stablility. Shorting these companies; by its very nature is a negtive force. Short seller for the most part are manipulated by- a small group who bet that a targeted firm will fail. In what manner does such a strategy help improve the economy? In fact ,it does not - it serves to line their pockets and destroy companies. Not only do they rob investers of their wealth but they cause employees of said firms to lose their jobs,
Running a business is difficult at best and so how does sowing the seeds of doubt help them survive? I have witness hundreds of viabable firms attacked by short selling research frims These investment advisors playon the peoples' fears. They find some issues with the firm and then engender discontent and eventual fear of loss. Investers become fightened and then sell their stock until the short sellers profit by the depreciated stock value. Short selling research frims are allod to sell short the very frims they critique.I t is my belief that this is annalous to: " allowing a fox to guard the hen house. How in the world is this a legitimate investment tool. A frim writes a negative piece, creates discontent and fear and then profits from selling short the attacked firm?
To protect the market from these frims - the govenment should ablolish selling short.
