Daniel:

I've been very bearish since the summer of '96 Don't feel bad, I've been bearish since 1989!

By the way, although my interest in it has wavered, I used the arbitrage short to great advantage in closed end country funds for two years.

Personally, I don't understand how value investors can not short in this environment. This environment allows for the scam companies, which are the best shorts. In a bear market, those companies can't even get started. This is why so many of the very well known personages on SI are shorters. It's their track record, silly.
