Stephen: I agree with your post. You don't short a stock that has excellent fundamentals. Dell has that attributes. That is different from Amazon. Although shorting a stock has an unlimited loss potential, one just don't let it ride until it hits skyhigh before you cover. Have a buy stop or buy a call. A stock like amazon is just good for shorting. I have done it several times, and cover them too soon (I am not complaining because I reaped profit every time). The characteristics amazon give us a double amounition for going down: a. fundamental is as stinky as a skunk and b. market downturn. Compare that to dell: the problem is just market downturn while the fundamentals remain intact. go longhorn!
