<<<I made a better return (adjusted for time) than any short position <<<<

wanmore, by looking at the advance decline line since the july top, if you would have had the monkapottamus throw 10 darts at the stock pages and shorted all of them through mid october you would have probably made a lot of money.

however, most people short the wrong stocks or the wrong industries - the ones with high relative strength (i'm guilty too) and thats why they can't make money shorting in the stealth bear.
