Well, we could let people be short one stock at any given point in time. I have no problem with that, as long as the stock has a dividend yield of less than 2%. I guess the value of the shorted stock would be:

Purchase Price + (Purchase Price - Today's Price), right?

Anybody else have opinions on shorting? I don't mind much of anything as long as it's relatively easy to enter in the spreadsheet, and keeps with the theme of an investment in a portfolio of stocks.
