<<I don't think some people can risk NOT shorting. >> How many years trading/investing you have under your belt? Those are dangerous words you are speaking. Sure the fallicy that your losses are unlimited being short are a joke. And the reasons are too self evident to get into right now. But never the less, shorting is a very risky business. That's why people who short(other than day trading) are much more in tune with those stocks they short than those long the stock. <<There is no more risk in shorting than going long>> Please elaborate on thatcomment at your leasure. So now here we are. Go ahead and short this stock if you feel comfortable enough with it. Again, if you knew me, my habits, you would know I encourage people to take full advantage of trading opportunities(I mean I don't see the color green in my country's flag). But here's my take on shorting ckfr. The volume is generally too low for me to piddle around with shorting it(unless you are playing with a few hundred shares). If you do enough DD here(which I hope you will share with us), you may find that there are better "sleep well at night: stocks to short. Besides, if you are going to short any stock, you better do your home work. Most shorters do much, MUCH more DD than those that go long on a stock. Shorters are much more market savvy and more apt to ferret out all the rats. But we're a cultish thread. I think most of us are massochists too deep inside<G>) But fact is most here have been around for over three years, and again, do your home work, mosrt of us have traded this around many more times than you may assume. If you want my record for this stock, go back and read the last 18,000 posts here as well as the other 8,000 posts here #subject-761 And you might learn a thing or two about how we do what we do here. I hope I'm not coming off as brash or anything, thatsurely is not my intention. But I anxiously await further discourse with you about CKFR or anything else market related.
