Right on...!

Finally, the SEC turns to remove one vast inequality:

You can buy Yahoo (fill in your preferred stock symbol) puts without uptick
You can short Yahoo calls without uptick
(take that together and you have one synthetic short position)
You can short a company on the Nasdaq Small Cap without uptick (maybe one acquired by yahoo for stock)
You can short the same company on the OTC BB without uptick

Finally you can short Yahoo in Germany without any uptick...

But you have to wait for one silly uptick to short Yahoo on the Nasdaq....!
